I have taught foreign exchange students to quilt using a tube quilt. You need at least 5 fabrics and cut into 5 inch strips. Connect the 5 inch strips into one piece width together. Then sew the first and last strip together. Then cut the tube into 5 inch strips. Undo the first and last seam to open the strip and do each strip opening the next seam down. You then sew these strips together to give you a quilt top. It also makes a different design, but is easy and quick. Good luck.
