I hope the fabric shows up.

How many yards do you have? I always used 8 repeats

I'm sure you could but because of the size of the squares you would probably need a large amount of fabric.

It isn't really what I would choose, but that doesn't mean anything...

I've never made one yet and wanted to make something unique out of this fabric for my sister.

any other ideas? besides just squares

I am sure someone will have a wonderful idea. You might really like a OBW or Stack and Whack, there just isn't enough variaion in color for me. There would be a lot of negative space.

Does your sister like florals? Batiks? I can see a floral log cabin with the Bulldog squares replacing some of the blocks. A friend just made a sampler quit with some of the blocks just a large flower. It was very pretty, though normally I'm not a sampler fan. The large blocks (your Bulldogs) gave my eyes somewher to go.

If you cut this up, you'll loss the specialness of the fabric if she is a fan of that team.

You have an approximate 6" repeat - that would give you 6 per yard more or less. Determine you desired number of repeats 4, 6 or 8. Cut a 12" strip that long lengthwise, and cut crosswise, stack & cut.
You probably will not see the logos
