    I dug through my 2 1/2" bin and have started to sew. Almost all of the neutral squares were squares already cut. So far I've used 6 squares of fabric I have purchased...rest from others leftovers..

    That's gratifying, isn't it, Oksewglad? Feels good to cut some of this stuff up and put it to use. I need to plan to do more scrappy's. Amazing to know that we have whole quilts hiding in the containers if we take the time...

    I completely forgot! The doctor has me on some loopy-head medicine--talk about a lost weekend. I will catch up!

    Wow great 4 patches everyone! I was able to make quick work ofthis while the game was on all my squares came from my 2.5" square bin so no cutting just grab and matched them up. I thought for sure I would run out of neutrals and need to cut some but found enough. My bin is still full made a small dent.

    Lovely squares and 4 patches, everyone.

    I cut some more colored squares since I wanted more variety and I also needed a lot more neutral squares. I was happy to use up some smaller pieces of tone-on-tone for the neutral and my die cutter made cutting those squares a breeze.

    It's really fun to look at all these four patches and see such fun and beautiful fabrics and wonder what people used them for in the first place. I have fabric picked out, it's kind of a controlled scrappy because they were a layer cake that didn't get much used.

    I like looking through the fabrics and see fabrics I have used at one time or another! The 4P's are all done...onto the next clue.

Nothing like thinking Big....LoL Thanks for the nice comments ladies.
    Yes, Mary but can't really tell you how much to make now, or I will be giving away too much. So sorry.
