Jaba, I spent yesterday going tru all my scraps and it seems I kept looking to make the colors match. But as I looked more at the tutorial. The most important thing I think is to keep the 1st and last row contrasted, and then just go with it for the other 4. I decided to cut my fabric the full width. So I may have 2 blocks the same. I will, however, sew in opposite directions for the rows to keep them from getting wonky.
