I went through my leftover pieces and found quite a few 5" squares and wondered what I could do with them. Does anyone have ideas for me? Thanks in advance. :D :D

Here is one I made from 5 inch squares I won at a camp retreat. I usually cut up my left over fabric pieces into common size squares or strips and save till I have enough for a quilt.

There are a lot of patterns for nickle squares out there and I think there's even a book called nickle squares around. I think nickle squares are 5 inch squares.

They do make up into a wonderful scrappy quilt.
|
There is a book called "Nickel Quilts."
|
Pat Speth has at least 3 books on "Nickel Quilts", "Amazing Nickel Quilts" and I can't think of the name of the 3rd book. It might be "More Nickel Quilts". She has a website too. You might want to google her. Her patterns all start out with 5" squares and go from there.

I used a charm pack to make a Disappearing Nine Patch. You could add a solid color to your scraps so you have enough for a decent sized quilt.
