Here are some of the quilts from the recent quilt-a-thon on January 21, 2008 (Martin Luther King day).
the first two quilts are the standard 9-patch pattern, but the quilt top maker stopped at the strips of 3, instead of further cutting into the 9 patches. This enables a top to be completed quicker, and it adds interest to the quilt. Also, no points to match in the 2" squares in the 9-patch.
The 3rd quilt is composed of 35 blocks all cut from the strip sets. These could be left-over pieces from other quilts, or just from 2 1/2 inch strips.
The 4th quilt is a nice example of taking the 6 1/2" blocks of fabric, and arranging them in a pleasing pattern.
