I've never seen a quilt like this but I really, really like it. I like your story on how to do the top row. It makes sense. It's really an attractive quilt. I love scrappy quilts very much. I've made so few of them - maybe two in my lifetime. I would like to do what someone else said - use 5" blocks and make this. Would it be too big? The blocks being 5"? And what about using a jelly roll? I have so many jelly rolls that I need to use up. Would one jelly roll make a quilt like this?
I have never bought a jelly roll so I have no idea. Since it is a scrap quilt, you can used some off each roll couldn't you and then some out of your scrap bin also.

No you are not going to pull me into another project. My hands are covering my ears, "I can't hear you!!" You haven't seen the now 4 hexie projects I am working on! Have to quilt and bind the first one yet.

As for this one, I'm only cutting squares when I think of it ............ and stashing them in a jar. It'll be a long way off before it'll become a WIP!

Lol, I am going to have lots of 2.5 squares left over as I am continuously cutting and there are always leftovers. I put those in little bags for later projects or when an idea grabs me or I see something.
