OMG GGal ... that's incredible!! I'm awestruck!
I know you are wanting to do QAYG, but have you thought of just joining these as is?
I like the way they are with those alternating blocks. It gives an Irish Chain look to it.
Probably there's a proper quilting name to those blocks and the design they create.
I REALLY like how it is bringing the colours together ... and I think you'd lose that with the strips when doing QAYG.
Just some thoughts from the Peanut Gallery!!
So that's side one ... what is going to be on side two?
I wait in total anticipation to see what it will be like!
