I wanted to try and do the quilt-as-you-go method using strips instead of blocks, and it really worked out well. Was a bit heavy by the time I was putting on the last three rows, but all in all, I am please with the results, and will definately do it again. Backing got a bit wrinkled in a couple spots -- I call it my learning curve! Or should I say learning wrinkle.

This is the first one from Dagny's Jan swap that I've seen completed:) Mine is in the center Right side of the first photo!!! Could you possibly email me the photo if I send you a PM? That would be cool to collect photos of how my blocks were used!!! Thank you,
