Default The Tale of a Simiple Strip Quilt

Step 1 Gather scrap pieces together and cut down into strips starting at the widest width available. I began at 5" and ended at 1 1/2".
Step 2 Sew all like widths together end to end into one long strip. This looks like a 2" wide set.[ATTACH=CONFIG]609651[/ATTACH]
Step 3 Begin by laying out a mock up of strip placement, staggering the different widths. Notice there are long strips of the same fabric. These help break up the busy-ness of the top. Measure each strip to the desired length and cut.[ATTACH=CONFIG]609652[/ATTACH]
Step 4 Sew strips together until the desired width. Begin and end each seam with a backstitch to reinforce the seam.[ATTACH=CONFIG]609653[/ATTACH]
