I went with deeper, fuller colors of the rainbow to more closely resemble an authentic Amish quilt. Each block has two colors, and below I've paired them together.
Today I cut the block fabrics. I've yet to cut the black background. The large colored squares are 8-7/8" and the smaller squares are 4-1/2". After cutting the first color, I realized it was better use of the fabric if I cut the WOF strip 9" wide rather than 8-7/8" wide in order to accommodate the 4.5" squares. Then it was a simple cut to make the 8-7/8" square from the 9".
