Not 2.5" but 1.5 cut, 1 inch finished. Burgoyne Surround, only rule, no two like colors could touch. I did use solids only. So it really depends on what you want to accomplish

I want to do an Arkansas CrossRoads quilt. http://qftb.blogspot.com/2012/08/ark...e-pattern.html
I always use 2.25 strips for binding, but I have shifted to 2.5" strips so I can cut any extra into squares for this pattern. I don't know when/if I will ever get it done, but I have always loved that pattern for scraps.

My sister made one I liked, though I don't have a picture. She made a bunch of 16 square blocks made of 2 1/2 inch squares. Those were all brightly colored scraps. Then she made the same size blocks of two colors...in this case chocolate brown and cream, and alternated the blocks with the 16 sqaure blocks. Unfortunately, I can't recall what the name of that block was. It wasn't one big four square block, but a similar design diagonally. It made a very striking quilt, one that had a secondary design and one that our guild is raffling off as part of our Sept. quilt show.
Sure which I had a picture to share, but it was a very good use of scraps.
