strip piecing. Sew a dark to a light strip press to the dark side, and sub cut them to 2 1/2". I prefer this way to individual squares. Then sew the twosies together for the 4 patch.

This is how I do it. The blocks come together fast.

You can also use the same idea for a 9 patch, just sew 3 strips together and change from light, dark, light ..... to
dark, light, dark.

janeknapp, what program do you use to make the diagrams for the 4 patch? They are so nice and show what you mean so clearly. Just wondering if I have something like that and just don't know it. LOL

Jelly rolls are one of my favorite precut fabrics selections.
