please note on Jan's grand example: do one block sewn together as such dark in each corner, the next block switch it up alternating to light in each corner so you achieve a checkerboard affect in the end. Jan will be posting her rounds immediately so I can't wait to see what you come up with. Mine are different oranges/yellows and whites randomly situated. I also had to make my strips 2" and cut down as I am not nearly as accurate at Jan is at making 1/4 inch seams even with a quarter inch foot. sew two together, trim, then sew the last one on trim.. shorter strips mean less wobbly strips btw.. so if your using a full yard cut that strip in half to make it easier on you and the seams
