If you alternate large blocks of either of the fabrics, large being 8-10+ inches, and then made a double 4-patch of half that dimension, so if you use an 8" finished block (8.5" cut) then the 4-patch would be made with two 4" finished squares of the other fabric, and two smaller 4-patches made of 2" finished solids from the fabrics (so the yellow from the bat signal, or the red or blue from the words, or even black).

You can move the basic blocks around so that either the little 4-patches march in diagonal lines or as an Irish chain that encircles the larger block.

Fast and easy, fun with four patches and large pieces
