Strips....now what?
#1
I tossed the shoo-fly block idea for my aunts quilt out the window. I just didn't feel like following a pattern, so I've been cutting the fabrics into 2" strips and mis matching them together, so I have a handful of 3 1/2" 2 color fabric strips, and now I'm not sure what to do with them. I was thinking just a strip quilt, but I just don't know...
Any ideas what to do with my strips?

Have you searched this board for the "super Fast jelly roll" quilt? Or how about some of the scrappies on this blog http://carterquilter.wordpress.com/c...y-heart-block/ ?

You could find light fabrics and cut matching 3-1/2" strips from them, then match them with the ones you've got to make a tube quilt. Here is a link to a website with a video on the tube quilt idea:

Also think Chinese Coins with white sashing and border would look fabulous. The cover of this book has an example:
