Yes it works!
Thanks for all the help! My sister is going through a really rough time right now and so the other night when I could not sleep I found myself (for no reason at all) designing a quilt for her. Not only did I design it, but I also went through my fabric stash in my sewing/craft room and found the fabric to use. I have spent the majority of my day preparing the top to be pieced together. I am pleased to say that ALL the strips have been cut and tomorrow I am going to begin piecing the top together! It is very odd because it is almost as if I am being driven by a force beyond my control to complete this.
Then this afternoon when I was practicing with some stitches and that happened I kinda freaked out a little bit!
I will be sure to post pictures when I am finished . . . it is a labyrinth lap quilt :-)
