Default Any ideas

Some time ago I was given my late friends stash. Thought I had everything sorted, just discovered one more bag. Theres 6 sets of tubes using 2.5 inch strips of about 12 different fabrics, does anyone recall what pattern this might be. Don't you hate when you almost remember this pattern.

There are several patterns on the Jordan Fabric site that are made using 'tubes' from jelly rolls and Donna Jordan has a few of them on her YouTube, if I remember correctly. One of them is called: Tea Time

This is a quilt I made using that method. I called it Tea Time Ferns

This is a picture of the backing on it. (Sorry, both pictures didn't show up on my last post) It is quilted in the ditch and from corner to corner on each block.

Sounds like a Bargello-type quilt, too.

I kinda think you are right, I was hoping there was something else, matching all those seams sure is intimidating to me.

You can do it! Lots of youtube videos to walk you through it. If the tubes are already made, now comes the fun part! I can't wait to see what you come up with.

I have not used that method. Not sure I would enjoy it.

Great quilt, quiltsfor! Sorry, I can't help you, tru4uca. I think the other responders are on the right track.

It's a fun way to make your blocks! Perfection in matching the seams is highly over-rated. With so much action, misses won't matter.
(Or you could just send them to me - I love playing with strips and tubes!)

Maybe Eleanor Burns’s “Quick Trip” pattern?
