The description sounds like a Borgello method of piecing. Maybe you can find it on her cite with that name.

The first trip around the world quilt I made was in a class I took as a beginner quilter. We sewed strips in panels, then cut the panels into more strips. Then we sewed all those together end for end. I must have had a sting of squares at least 100 feet long. After deciding which fabric would be my center, I unsewed the strip wherever the color pattern ended for each row. The second trip quilt which I just finished was a colorwash trip, super king, had 20 colors and I kept the strips in groups of 10 colors so it would be easier to manage. Worked fine. Don't have a photo yet, planning to set it up on my bed for pics, before I give it to my daughter for Christmas. Will post soon.

Loved this video. I must make quilt like this. Eleanor is a very good instructor.

i was inspired to get some pictures of my color wash trip, so just spread it out on my king bed and that's why the wall hanging doesn't match. For pictures only. It is 106x112.

that's BEAUTIFUL... i am anxious to start mine but i honestly need to find a more detailed set of intructions so that i can know exactly where to start...
i like the fact that you stuck to 10 colors.. i think i may try the same thing...
thank you to everyone for helping on this topic.

I used 20 colors/fabrics but kept them in panels of 10 to not be so bulky. The book I used was titled Colorsplash Trip around the world by Piecemakers. It's the easiest I've found to follow.
