it looks lovely but also labor intensive!

That one almost looks like it was done as a modified 9-patch.

The one I'm doing I stitched my narrow dark color WOF strip to one side of my wider focal fabric strips, then cut into squares and will arrange so it looks woven.

Would you post a pic when you have several blocks done and arranged to look woven, mom-6?
I love the woven look, but am allergic to patterns that require a lot of focused attention.

When I made it, I used jelly rolls and cut strips from stash. Didn't realize until the bits were going together that the jelly roll was cut over-sized so things didn't line up properly. Make sure to measure your strips.

I could get nothing out of the link Dunster posted. Tried 4 or 5 times.

I guess I'm the odd man out here. I love making partial seams. I made the Square Family Reunion last winter, and did partial seams on every seam, after I had made a few with two short strips and two longer ones, didn't like that. With partial seams, I could cut all my strips the same length, sew the first one on partially, the other three go on and then the partial seam is finished. That quilt has about 300 squares of 4 different sizes, and some of them have five rounds.
I enjoyed every minute of making all those 300 little quilts.

I ordered 4 batik (earth tones) jelly rolls yesterday to make my son a king sized quilt. Wondering if this pattern would work or if it would be easier to cut into 2 1/2 little blocks and place at random? Will try with some scraps today.

dunster, I can't seem to find any quilts on this site. How do I search for it? The only search box I saw was for ads.

I've always been able to access Moda Bakeshop but I too am only getting a weird box for access to other sites with the name 'Moda' there must be something going on with the Moda Bakeshop website. Will try later.
