Ok Im not good at this but all I did was take 4strips and sew togeather and then I cut the set I just sewn into squares. took two squares and placed them right sides togeather drew aline from corner to corner then sewn a 1/4 in seam on each side of line cut on the line open and press seams to one side. then arranged the new sewn pieces to make a block. for the white I just looked up how to set blocks on point then added strips of blue and red to frame the squares. I thougt it looked like a table runner and almost kept it for that. but added to the quilt cause I needed more width add to sides. I bound it in red today it is now in the wash. It was all strips except the white. Thanks for looking.
