Is your high from the Rocky Mountains, or chocolate? (I see you're from Colorado, maybe it's something else?)

I too vote for strips -- definitely ala Mary Ellen Hopkins here.

I think this way could be just as easy if you start with strip sets by cutting 6 in wide length of fabric from both fabrics, sew them together lengthwise and subcut into 6 in pieces. Make your four patch this way and then whack.
