Eddie, Did you cut your strips into shorter lengths before you assembled it? Did you do it in the one long strip method? Then fold and sew, fold and sew, fold and sew?

Eddie that is just beautiful. All of your work is always so perfect. What sort of work did you/do you do besides creating master pieces? Do you have a background in art or have you just been blessed with this wonderful talent? I always look for your posts first and they are always gorgeous.

Fantastic quilt as usual! I love the panto you quilted on there. I still can't do pantos but then I haven't practiced much either. I bet Olivia loves it.

Yes, I did cut the jelly roll strips in half before I started - I wanted the top to have a scrappier look than just using the long 42" pieces. After cutting them in half, I used the pattern from the site here which is to just sew them all end to end, then sew the sides together, cut, sew again, cut, etc.
