12 identical blocks from 2 rolls of 2 1/2 inch strips? Pattern help needed.
I found it hard to find patterns that I could use 2 1/2 strips and use my roll of strips. I have two rolls that are the same giving me by the looks of it 4-6 strips that are the same but I have not found a pattern yet that I could get 12 identical blocks out of two rolls. If some one has any ideas please let me know. Thanks.

I found a bunch, must have been 1.5 yards, of 2.5" strips that I had cut up for another quilt a long time ago. So I had to figure out a pattern with what batiks I have. I am going to do the double nine patch since the strips will work perfect for that block. So put in a new blade and went to town. I still have enough left that I may have to make another set of blocks with the 2.5" strips. Will have to think hard again on what to do. I may implement the merry go round block that is going on in another swap to this one just to use those strips up. It would work. I am just a cutting addict. Love to cut that fabric. Cut out five sets of 12 blocks each in just a couple hours while embroidery machine stitching out design. What was I thinking?

Oh, I also meant to mention that Connecting Threads is having a huge sale, which includes Batiks at $4.16 a yard!!! Not affliated just posting a source. I have bought from them in the past including Batiks, and they have good quality stuff.
Here is the link to their website: www.connectingthreads.com
And here is the direct link to the Batik sale (while supplies last): http://www.connectingthreads.com/Fab...t2--BatiksSale
