Looking for suggestions of patterns using 2.5 squares. Thanks everyone.

I will surf and see if I can come up with some ideas for us

Fons & Porter has a quilt pattern, I think it is called "cottage quilt" or something like that. I am pretty sure it uses 2 1/2" squares in the sashing.

How about thie Triple Irish Chain

You could make something as basic as 4 patches or 9 patches, and then creatively put them together.

That's the size squares I used on my hand pieced Around the World quilt.

have fun whatever you decide to make

I saw a neat one just the other day....basically what I would call a backwards 9 patch...that is the main squares are plain and then the sashings are patchwork. It was gorgeous!

I kept the link in my email box for future reference:
