Mile a Minute pattern:
 
I just read about the "Mile a Minute" quilt pattern. Can anyone explain what it's like ,or even do a tutorial on it?
I'm always ready for new ideas. Another one I've been looking for is "Simple Simon"
I really enjoy this Quilting Board.

Well this looks like something else to add to my LIST that is already so big that I will never get them all done.

I've never seen the Mile a Minute concept. Looks like it'd be one you could just do with trimmings as you go instead of tossing them into with crumbs for later. It'd just grown, and you'd never really feel like you'd worked on it.

Never seen this method before, looks like a lot of fun! I really like the idea of joining the scraps as you go. Really would work for the scraps that feel a little to small to keep.
