Potato chip quilt
#11
Thank you mhollifiel for helping us out, I was reading all the various patterns and getting confused as to which quilt was the potato chip quilt. It does look very easy and I think I would like to make a few. A baby quilt would have much smaller squares than 10" and 2.5" strips, but still doable. I think what is nice about this for a charity quilt is that we can use up nice fabric from our stash and make a very pretty quilt. I'm thinking I would like to make this with some of my black and white scraps.

Wannabe Quiltin! I am going to risk confusing you and take you one step further. This Potato Chip version is called Crazy Eights. After you complete your individual blocks, press well and grab a ruler and your rotary cutter. Slice in half down the middle both ways. Turn opposite corners 180 degrees and sew back together. You will see blocks of eights leaning on their sides! Makes a quilt with a bit more movement.
