It was a very painful experience but the resulting quilt was gorgeous!

I like that idea, don't know if I'd cheat though! I made Joey a strippy lap quilt a while ago and had him chose and hand me the strips, although I did pre-sort them into lights and darks then tell him which value I wanted! :lol:

Gorgeous scrappy. Love the border, and the red really adds to it.
