Or...cut in 1/2 and then "sash" with 2-1/2" strips and place alternating to form a pattern.

I am getting ready to make a quilt top from the Batiks called Island Chain from the book Scrap Basket quilts - also another member here suggested Scribbles books

http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_no...ords=schibbles

I bought both and they have great patterns- now just to find the time - oh and I have my black & whites out to make a quilt for my niece and nephew
