Colleen, You will need 3 sets of fab #1 thru11
2 sets with fab # 11 taken from bottom and put on top of #1, so that would be fab #11 thru 10 and so on.

Each time you make a strip set, take one strip from the bottom of the run and put it on top.

Eleven strip sets to complete the quilt. I number the strip sets whatever fab number is to be on top.
# 1....2 sets....fabs #1-11.....need 72 inches to make next cuts
You will cut #1 sets into (20) 3 1/2 in strips

# 11...3 sets....fabs #11-10.....need 96 in. to make next cuts
Cut #11 sets into (32) 3 in strips.

#10.....2 sets...fabs #10-9...need 80 in. to make the next cuts.
Cut #10 sets into (32) 2 1/2 in strips.

#9.......2 sets...fabs #9-8....need 64 in. to make next cuts.
Cut #9 sets into (32) 2 in. strips.

#8........1 set....fabs #8-7....need 48 in. to make next cuts.
Cut #8 in (32) 1 1/2 in. strips. You can get the extra few cuts from left over from another strip set.

#7........1 set....fabs #7-6...need 32 in. to make next cuts.
Cut #7 into (32) 1 in strips.

# 6...... fabs 6-5.....need 16 in. to make the next cuts.
Cut (16) 1 in. strip. You will have to get these from left overs from another set.

Hope I haven't made any typos.

I'm going to be away from home until about 7pm so I'll check back then for any questions.
If anyone has their fabrics picked out, please post pictures so we can see what you will be working on.

Ok, I'm a little lost all ready. Just following thru as I don't have the fabric yet but figure I should ask so I know when I want to start.
How many 2.5" strips of each color do you cut in order to make all these sets? Thanks

You will cut 11 strips from each of the fabrics.
