question about using 2.5" squares
I am wondering whether it is legit to make every other row so the square seams are at the half point instead of matching all those corners... ??

Hey it's your quilt. Do what you want. My only concern would be that the top might look too busy--or it might look really neat! Why don't you lay out some unsewn squares on your design wall and take a look?

I do it all the time as it is my chosen form of therapy-I love squares and sewing squares!
