I cut them on the diagonal both directions -so that I would get flat pieces. Then I opened them up and saw that there were two QuarterSquare triangle units and two HalfSquare triangle units. I pressed those open and trimmed them to the same (odd) size of 2 3/4"
I decided on a layout and sewed them together. Then I used leftover strip pieces to create this piece.
Yes it is "less than perfect" but I really like it. It is bright and happy and it is batik. I am not sure what it will become, but we will see one day. Suggestions?
Until Next Time,

LOVE the colors and batiks! - It looks like the perfect beginning of a placemat or table runner or full-size quilt - depending on how many more strips you have and how big you want to go - ;))
Always love batiks, and the colors make me smile. This may be a perfect notebook,cover.
How fun!!! It looks so pretty!
It could become: a book cover, a zipper bag, part of a stuffed animal, or ... the list is almost endless!
Have fun with it!
