    Default Wavy Strip quilts

    Does anyone know where I can find instructions for a quilt I saw made years ago on Simply Quilts? All that I can remember was that the fabric was stacked and cut lengthwise into long strips of waves. They were sewn together and fit perfectly.

    Thanks for the help.

    I hope you are able to make the quilt. It will be lovely. I have not been able to master it, yet.

    That would be a perfect method for a Dr. Seuss quilt!

    Rayna Gilman explains it exactly the same in one of her books. She also mentions to see it slowly to be able to match the curves.

    Thanks for asking about that. I've seen this before but forgot about it. I really like it.

    Thanks so much for finding the tutorial. I've saved it for later. It doesn't look as easy as I remembered.

    I was given a king sized quilt done in this method that looks like the ocean - all gorgeous blues and greens. I've been wondering how to duplicate it to make a lap throw - thank you so much for posting this easy method - going to try it tonight!!

    If I had time to make one, I'd buy one of Cheryl Phillips' rulers.
