Our vendor at retreat demonstrated this project with the pattern and ruler. You sew 5" squares together 5 across and 9 down with 3" borders all the way around.....then recut with the special ruler from the bottom up so the colors come together. Was really fun to do and I had her permission to make a 6 1/2" ruler out of plexiglass for a bigger quilt...Haven't started that yet...

Oooh. I love scrappy quilts. That is awesome. Looks like you had a great time at retreat. Mine isn't until the end of January. I can't wait. So exciting.
