I was really thinking I would try my hand at making a "Modern Quilt" - thinking I would use a white fabric for the sashing and make it a very generous width.... but ....I am balking at using white, but I know it would be a good exercise for me, but ew - I do not like white in quilts unless I am using paint and print.
I also had a thought to do some block printing on these randomly pieced commercial fabrics.
Maybe I will think about this a bit before I go further. But I do so enjoy making the occasional scrap quilt...

Here's what I would do with those marvelous 12x12 blocks. Sew the all together, put a dark blue 1 1/2 inch border on and then finish it off with a medium blue border. (Most baby quilts are 48x48.) This is going to be my next baby quilt with the scraps I have on hand. Thanks!

36x48 is exactly the size our guild uses to make baby quilts for several organizations. We do make some a bit larger for older kids. I think you just need to sew that sucker together, quilt it by machine & call it done. Gives me lots of ideas for all my strips that are left-overs!
