OK, hold on a second here. It’s sort of Foundation String piecing, but not really. Foundation string piecing is using a square of paper (which you later remove) or fabric (which becomes part of the quilt) and sewing strips of fabric to cover the ENTIRE size of the foundation. You then trim it to the size block you want.

Here's a pic of my design wall. Thanks for all the input! I'm not following a pattern. I just extrapolated from pic of Eastern Sunrise block by Happy Turtle. The link was not working, so I applied this technique to replicate. Not sure if it is the correct way to make this, but it works for me. I just don't know how to describe the process.

I have the PDF for that pattern, the instructions are for paper piecing. Your foundation piecing did the job so I'd just keep doing it that way. It's going to be a beautiful quilt.

I like that! I would like to see it finished. I tried to link to the free pattern but it did now work.

Unfortunately, the site wants you to log in with your Google account before you can download the pattern. I really like the idea since I do a lot of string piecing and this is something different. Guess I'll get out the ole graph paper. Might as well upsize a bit while I'm at it.

I can't get the pattern to download.

I rather doubt anyone will be able to download the pattern from that particular website. It appears as though the blogger has to send it to you after you log in with your Google credentials, and the blog looks abandoned. The most recent post was over 4 years ago.

That is a neat pattern and looks like a fun project. Thank you PurplePansies for sharing the link.
