Thanks everyone for all the compliments. You really have to try one of these. I like the strips sewn at an angle but since this fabric was only 36" I decided to do them straight. I also have one posted that I did in flannel. I did that one in one day. Check it out; I think it is titled "my flannel strippy scrappy quilt in 1 day with fleece backing quilt". They are just so much fun to do and the results are so speedy. And they look impressive even though they are just straight sewing.
