Oh! I just finished my 4th black and white quilt using this pattern. I said I was never going to make another one. BUT! Now I have to try it with red and white. These quilts aren't hard to make, but they definitely take some time. I love the way you put the strips on an angle. Thanks so much for the inspiration!

For all of you who asked - and thanks for all the great feedback! - I cut my strips 1" wide to start. Sewed them together in order dark to light, cut in 30 degree triangles and then built the puzzle. I used two strip sets and pressed one with the seam allowance to the light and one to the dark. Made matching all those points easier. I also trimmed all finished seam allowances to 1/8" to reduce bulk. Now it is your turn!
