Good day and welcome to my quilting blog, where I document my progress on my many projects.
My last post was about the second top I made from a variety of 2 inch square scraps from 2 shoe boxes. Two quilt tops depleted the shoe boxes somewhat, but there are quite a few scraps and strips left:
So, I started a series of 25 patch blocks. I may have to make a big quilt top to use these all up. Here are my stacks of 2 inch squares, ready to go:
Some strips were too skinny, and some squares too small or ragged:
But I have started:
Each block will finish at 7.5 inches square. I have a long way to go. I hope to vary my fabrics, and not have a bunch of ugly err, less loved fabrics at the end. So these strips (below) went back in the shoebox, to be pulled out later, to brighten the selection.

I have a lot of 2 1/2 inch squares cut already. I plan to do blocks like you are and I am thinking of black sashing in between.
