You need two squares and two strips of one color and one square of another color for each block. I really don't know how much fabric I used because I have this awesome stash of batiks. I was on a roll, so i just kept cutting. I have enough blocks left over to make another quilt a little smaller than this one.

    Didn't use a jelly roll. I cut strips from my own stash.
