help with layout for different sized squares
 
1 Attachment(s)
Hello!

I'm hoping there is some good creative juices going on!

I cut out a bunch of squares with the idea of doing a circles of squares, but changed my mind.

They are cut out in the following sizes: 6.5, 6.5, 4.5, 3.5, 2.5 and 1.5 inches respectively.

I'm playing with layout options, but need help!

The four colours at the bottom - I have those too, in all of the sizes.

I have tons of white fabric to do borders around them to make them all the same size.

It doesn't have to be on point, at this point I just need ideas on what to do with these squares!

Thanks so much ...

Marion

Just an idea here. Border them all in white to bring the blocks all to the same size. Stack same colors small to large top to bottom. Like a drop of water growing as it goes down?

What about clustering the biggest ones in the center, and have "rays" shooting out from it, from largest to smallest, with a white background?

Or have the largest on top. I also like the rays idea.

I like the last option. Reminds me of beads cascading down.

If you want to add to your squares, here is a cute quilt I saw on Pinterest. Makes nice use of different sized squares/colors.

What about something like this?

Maybe arrange the colors in a rainbow kind of layout?
