"Orphan" blocks; you will eventually use them. I have a stack of 5" squares I swore I would never us.
Sure enough; we are getting ready for a work day with guild, and I have almost enough for a community quilt.
We never know!

i just looks richer & warmer to me, whereas the reverse side looks wishy washy and very close in 'value' to the patterned fabric next to it.
thanks for explaining though!

I just used up a bunch of 5" squares making a lap quilt using the three-seam block ("10-minute block). It was the fastest thing I ever put together I found the tute here on the board.
