    I have made 2 of what I think you are looking for. I used a crazy quilt 8 piece block and just added the 1 inch strips between each piece. I am still trying to load a picture but having all kinds of trouble. My file is not being accepted. I will keep trying.

    I figured out how to post the picture, finally. I also made this in autumn colors with black strips. It was very striking.[ATTACH=CONFIG]593427[/ATTACH]

    when there is a strip between 2 HST, I call that a "Lattice" strip

    thin bias binding, particularly if curves are involved. They used to sell it on rolls, maybe they still do. The technique was very popular in the late 90's

    Thank-you for posting your picture of your quilt with the lattice addition to the crazy quilt. I really like your color choices and would love to see your autumn quilt, I imagine it to be beautiful too!

    I've done it pieced



    and also using 1/4" bias, which I made myself with fusible web on the back so I could iron it in place and then stitched down both sides.

    I don't really see an example of what you mean yet. Laying a strip between the halves would work (like applique), but I think you're looking for a piecing technique. It could be done fairly easily with paper piecing. Draw a square the size you want (including seams) with a stripe from one corner to the other. Fabric #1 would be the fabric you want in the center, then sew the other fabric to the other two sides. Does that make sense?

    Yes, I can't find the example I saw online (looked for hours). I know I followed a link etc. I've figured it must be paper pieced as that is the only way I can figure to get both sides even.It works in my mind,hopefully today I can get to try my idea. Wish I knew how to post pictures.

    true4uca, the problem you have trying to post photos is likely related to the file size. This site can only support pictures resized to " medium or small". If using a computor, you can resize by editing your photo to a smaller format. If using a tablet or phone, try emailing it to yourself ( use the resize option before sending) ...then " save to your device" from the email, and use that version to post on here.
