    Sounds interesting - never heard of this method before!

    I've made 2 of these, one from a purchased jelly roll which a friend machine quilted for me and it is going to a quilt benefit auction for a Bible Camp. The other is from strips I had here and after it is tied, it is going to Alabama to the tornado victims. It turned out nice, too, but would have been better if I'd planned better. I just used random strips of blues and browns.

    All you have to do is cut your first strip in half so it will be about 20 inches long. Then start the sewing the rest of them on. I did 2 tops of these in one afternoon--fun!! If you have a package of layer cakes that you don't know how to use you can do the same technique and you get a nice "block " look.
