    My friend and I got together to make these one afternoon. Hers are the pastel squares--photos don't do it justice as squares are just beautiful.
    I got mine sewn together and a border added-will be after Christmas b4 I finish.
    Then I used 3 strips--cut 1 1/4" wide x 13" and one strip 2 3/4" x 13". I took these four squares and made a mouse pad for a co worker.

    I love all of them. I really like the middle one that you split the 2nd block and put it on either side. That looks awesome, thanks for sharing.
