You did a fantastic job, it is a perfect pattern to "try" to empty the scrap bins. I keep making scrappy quilts and for some reason my pile seems to grow, I think there is a scrap monster in my bin that sneaks them in from other quilters bins.

Just to peck your interest the strips are from 1 inch to 3 inches in width and up to 17 inches long, sew them together to make a 17 x 17 inch square, no special cutting and I even used pieces that were pieced together as long as they fit the above criteria, heck I even sewed 2 uneven and non-matching pieces together to make 17 inches. I am at work now, so the pictures are on home computer - so hopefully by Friday night I will have the Magic Square tutorial posted. Bridge club tonight 
Thanks for all the comments!
