They are fun to make. I've adjusted my technique. I start with 2.5 inch strips. I use my rotary cutter to cut a wavering lengthwise line. I place the strips on my batting so the wave undulations are where I like them and then trim any extra from the ends. I pin them in place and zig zag the raw edges. Then I do some simple hand quilting. And I may add some beads or other decorative elements. It depends on how I decide to use the blocks.
I think that individual blocks would make great cushion fronts. I am going to make more before I decide what to do with them.
The later ones (upper right and lower left) are more curvaceous.
