I've made several "Confetti" quilts after I saw a pattern for one in a quilt store.
I start with trash fabric strips as long as I would like the quilt. They can be different widths and easily pieced together. I just overlapped the pieces and made one sew across. Mine were 2 1/2 to 4 1/2 inches wide. The well worn pieces of an old bed sheet work well.
I placed a scrap of fabric at the top of a strip, laid another scrap RST on that and sewed a straight seam holding those two together. Then the second piece gets folded down and scrap number three is placed RST on that and sewn. The seams are made according to the shape of the pieces, straight or slanted on the bias. It doesn't matter. I started four or five strips at the same time so I could chain sew from one strip onto the next. When you have enough strips to make the quilt as wide as you like, sew them all together. My daughter loves hers.
