Well, first I joined all the strips together in a pleasing to me manner. I made sure I alternated color and pattern on the fabrics. Then I started sewing the rows together until I got it as wide as I wanted then cut the first row at that point. Then I continued on. The strips started out the width of the fabric, originally. Although I love how it turned out, there's no way I could reproduce it exactly. It's a sort of "seat of my pants" type top.
