After a rabbit hole of playing with the minimum L-shaped seams of Mrs Perkins' Quilts, I submitted the related sequence to the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences (OEIS) for consideration.

Then, I washed, pressed, cut, sewed, ripped stitches, then sewed, then pressed a mini-quilt for the 13x13 Mrs Perkins' Quilt – and here it is:

13x13 Mrs. Perkins' Quilt comprised of blue, red, pink, and fall colored fabrics with the largest square in the upper left (7 in), the the two red 6 squares in the top right and lower left and smaller blue, white and floral blocks in the lower right.

If you'd like to see some low-light "in the making" images, they are below. I chose to do this as a mini-quilt, by hand. I thought about making it a pillow or bag, but went with making it a small wall hanging. Enjoy.
