I call this the start of a phone book quilt. I tore pages from my phone book and laid my six by twelve ruler on them and cut. I then went to my scrap bucket and started foundation sewing. I have 27 six by 10 1/2 rectangles so far. I don't know what I am going to do with them. Any ideas out there? I am thinking sashing in between. I know I need to make several more rectangles.

What a clever idea! Your blocks/strips looks like a variation of a Chinese Coins quilt, maybe Google that and see if you get some setting ideas?

It would be a great background for a big applique flower (or apple, or animal, or something...)
Why not cut some of you blocks in half and then make a strippy quilt from the large and small strips with sashing in between them? Just an idea.
