    I had a bag of 2”. All blue tones that I alternated with dark and light blue. I made 25 patch (5x5) and when I pressed them, I covered the entire block (7.5”) with a heavy cutting board to flatten the seams. Worked great. Then I did a wide (4.5”) sashing. I used 600 from the bag and had 100 left over.

    Tranum, what a clever idea to use the wooden cutting board as a large "clapper". Thanks for sharing!
