It looks just like the one I'm working on except I put sashing around each block. I paper pieced it. The strips are sewn diagonally onto the paper and then cut each block diagonally and put one block pieces top &bottom and another block pieces side to side. Very easy
WHEN THE STITCHES ARE PERFECT....THAT'S GOD'S WORK
Not sure why it would have to be paper pieced. I think strip piecing would work, but by using foundation paper you'd be able to match your seams easier.

I have the supplies to make something like this, but since it's not a string quilt I'm afraid of picking out the fabrics to get this effect. I see the first strip isn't set right on the diagonal middle now. maybe those two get sewn together first.
Don't mind me, just thinking outloud. lol

I love scrap quilts! This one is really nice. What a great collection of fabric this quiltmaker has!

My guess is that they were 4 strips sewn together into a strip set and cut into triangles. Piece four of them together and you have your block.
At least that's what I'd do if you aren't going to paper piece.

That appears to me to be a variation of the 3-Dudes quilt: Jelly roll strips sewn together, lay four sewn strips over another four, cut and make HSTs of the strips . . . think this is just a different placement. Whatcha think? Forgot the name . . . something Wells . . .

When you get cold just go stand in the corner.
They are usually 90 degrees.

Ever think about that? No? You only think about yourself??
