Anne has been playing around with one-inch strips lately too. She was inspired by Lynn's adorable Courthouse Steps blocks designed for her Cute as a Button table topper, and eventually a quilt called Country Courthouse.
Each block is anchored with a little nine patch...
And then off she goes adding creams and darks.
They are all the same and yet each one very different...
and at 4" finished, absolutely adorable.
This started out to be a small project of some sort but looking at all of her cream strips makes me think that she might end up with enough blocks to make a throw, or even something larger (apparently they are very addictive). Whatever its end, it is off to a fabulous start!....M

I agree, it is off to a fabulous start. ;^)
Those are some tiny steps. But I can see where they would become addictive. You might even use up a few tiny scraps. I've been working on some log cabin blocks with strips that are 1.25". They would look huge next to 1" pieces.
Adorable they are! And how clever to put a nine patch in the middle!
