Another experiment -

 

 

Was on the agenda today - 

 

To see if I could make a 6-1/2" version - 

 

Of the Square-in-a-Square unit - 

 

In a "different" way - 

 

And this one came out just right - 

 

 

My "different" way - 

 

Was to see if I could make the center square using my LEFT-EZE™ Rule - 

 

So yesterday I tried cutting the center square as a folded QST - 

 

But the whole "unit" came out a little too big -

 

And the strip size needed to cut it properly is an odd size -  

And not worth the time and/or trouble -

 

So today I cut the center square as a "regular" 4-3/4" square - 

 

And the experiment worked -

 

And it's not "different" at all - 

It's just the "regular" center square and corner HST way - LOL - 

After cutting the center square - 

 

I can use either my LEFT-EZE™ Rule - 

 

Or one of my dies for the corner HSTs - 

 

And the larger "version" of my Antique Squirrel - 

 

Could/would use 2-1/2" jelly roll strips for the bar units -

 

And no - I didn't plan on adding bigger blocks to the quilt -

 

I was going to make a larger version all by itself - 

 

And didn't think to combine them in one top - 

 

Until Gene mentioned it - 

 

It's not a bad idea -

 

I'm just not "there" yet - LOL -;))

 

 

 

Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -
