I love it! Great colors! Cheery! Fast and simple. And think of all the ways you could take off from this point by cutting squares, HST, using sashing... My mind is reeling!
Yes, this is a great idea and it has given me some ideas--I have a huge bag of 1.5" strips (think 120 liters--approx. 30 gallons) and if I made this big piece of fabric and then cut them up into squares or rectangles--great idea.
But I wanted to ask the OP--what length of fabric did you start with? How many inches of strips? The 2.5" jelly roll pattern says to start with 1600" of strips---did you adjust it because they were only 1.5"?
