What a story ! Scraps a ruler and use your brain and out comes a beautiful quilt. I enjoyed all the reading and variations of block placement also. Thank you for the guide for us to follow. Now my undesirable fabric can have a new home in a beautiful quilt top. hugs

I have removed the offending cross strip blocks lol and now here are 2 pics of the light strips going up and down and the dark going across and a pic of the dark strips going up and down and the light going across. Which do you like the best?
There are 80 bocks so far on the board. I have burned through the undesirable lights lol and am ripping from other sources and still have some dark left. I think I need to make at least 200 blocks to have a fair size quilt.

This quilt reminds me of an apartment building in the city with each apartment having different curtains hanging in the windows. I like the light medium darks in this pattern. I found some on pinterest and might have to consider making me one of these. This is a grate scrap user.
