Need easy 2.5" strip patterns .. here's a couple 4U

Personally, I love Bonnie Hunter's http://quiltville.blogspot.com/p/free-patterns.html patterns there are lots and lots to pick from. She uses lots of strips

Quilter's Cache http://www.quilterscache.com has a lot of patterns

Braid top pattern is great for 2.5" strips http://www.quilterscache.com/B/BraidBlock.html

Strip Scrap Bargello. Goes fast and easy, you do not need to match seams and no extra fabric except for borders.

Sounds interesting, but I'm not going to do a Google search for "strip joint". LOL Where might find this pattern?

Thanks for the strip patterns; they're all great!
nstitches4u, I did a google search for strip joints quilt pattern and found this link: http://www.fatquartershop.com/store/...34&Parent_Ids=
I like it, but can't afford the $8.50 price; maybe someday I can find a free pattern for it. I also liked Strip Off & Strip Search; I might be able to figure those out.

go to quiltville.com. There are a bunch, one of my favorites is Scrappy Trips Around the World. Also a cool bargello.

Wow! That is a beautiful pastel quilt. I'll have to try it, but I will do strip piecing which will go much faster.
