Time to use those wonderful 2 1/2" strips, or cut them from our Fat Sixths (12"x 22").  Just a little warning here, though.  This pattern only works if your strip pack has 2 each of 20 different fabrics--Timeless Treasures Tonga and Anthology Fabrics work.  So do the Fat Sixths, because you get 4 half strips from each.  The math is the reason.  One strip yields 1 1/2 blocks, so we use 2 identical strips (or 4 half strips) to get 3 blocks. 

The patterns also needs 3/4 yard for centers, and 3/8 yard or 1 Fat Quarter for the little background filler.

All pieces are cut the same size, so there is not much to think about--just fun with fabric!
