The students really got into the designing part of the class. Here are 2 layouts of each student's blocks.
They chose the layout they liked best as the final one. We just played with 16 blocks in the beginning so everyone could do the same layout at the same time. Most of the layouts are diagrammed in the book (Strips that Sizzle) and we just had to follow them.
Today a friend is coming over to use my big tables to baste a quilt and I am planning on getting some cutting done.
