Here is my scrappy tube quilt..I am taking pictures with my phone and can't zoom in focus or get a good shot..lol. But I think from these you will get the jist of what it looks like...Love that Tutorial...may use some more of my 2.5 inch strips to make another.
I used my left over HST to make the corner stones in my border..Could not get a good shot of those so I took the corner shot.... Hope you all have a good night!

really cute......I am so glad I found that TUTE....using the strip tubes is such fun and so fast........love the pinks and browns together on this.

Beautifully Done!!! Such pretty fabrics :D :D :D

Great colours.....love your work and thanks for the pics.

It doesn't even look scrappy! it looks well planned and lovely!! I am going to have to try this soon.

That is cute. I'm going to have to try that.

Absolutely fabulous....EVERYONE is enraptured with this tube tute, it's great seeing all the different projects you are coming up with!!

Gotta try it on my next quilt top!! :D :D :D

Good show!
I got a request last night for a lap robe for one of our veterans who has gone in to a nursing home ... I am thinking Red/White/Blue and a focus Marine fabric ... hadn't considered that there would be that reversal of the tube colors ... had you not posted your picture, I don't know how it escaped me! LOL
That looks like a winner of a quilt to me! <wave>

great job!

ooooooo pretty

That is beautiful!! Pink and black are always a hit!!

very nice quilt! i am going to do the tube quilting this weekend. I am so excited about this technique--looks so fun and easy :P

Very cute! Love the color combination!

That is so cute!! I love it! :D

Thanks everyone! I love that tutorial...and loving that I have yet another way to use up all those 2.5 inch strips taht we all have and what a way to use a jelly roll?

I may make another scrappy one using all of my jewel tone colored scraps because I need a wedding gift for a friend .....it went together so easily. 8)

how cute! I will definitely have to give this a try - love the colors in your quilt.

I like it!!!! :D

Can hardly wait to see your wedding quilt for your friend! Always having a project to move forward to, is a good thing <wave>

Very pretty and very quick. I am going to have to try this.

MMMMM I love yur quilt! I too am a pink fan! Beautifully done, I just love it! :D

Oh, that is so pretty. I love it.

Wow - that's attractive! What size did your blocks turn out to be?

Nice job and I love your colors!

Help me understand how you did it scrappy? The tutorial said to make long pieces of 2.5 inch wide. So did you have shorter lengths to cut into the triangles, or what? I absolutely love this one!!

:) :)
I Love that......soooooo Beautiful.
I saw that tut ...I really want to try it.
bopeep

When you make your first initial cut it is actually smaller than the other cuts and also the ending cut--so they are just regular HST ( not blocks) so I put all of mine together and made the corner stones. Could not waste a thing you know!

They finished at 10.5 :D

I Can't help but LOVE pink and red..it is a sickness I think....I always tease that when I am in the nursing home I will be wearing a pink feather boa permenently and my BFF will haev pink flames painted on her scooter....

I will HELP you!
They will rue the day that they let us in there (oh, yes! I will be there, too, and I have a PLAN!) :wink:
I was thinking about how to make those tube quilts scrappy, and I was reminded of a tip I read in some book.
The lady cut full width strips, a whole bunch of different ones. Then, she cut one in half and started sewing the strips, just butting the next one up against the one that was running out.
She didn't think that there was much waste (and, if you are in to scrappy, there will not be ANY waste <g>) ... but, it allows the colors to move through the quilt, be scrappy, but not too many of a certain combination to look stilted - - if that is a good descriptive word.
<wave>

This turned out great. Good job.

Very nice job and your strips match perfectly!

I have a basket full of scraps ( strips) cut 2.5 inches wide. SO I just grabbed all of my pink and black strips from that basket sewed them together and then sewed a big white strip to them to make the tube. I did color coordinate these scraps...but you don't have to do that..there will be a clash of color no matter what you do because every other square you cut will have the opposite color combo--so you can mix and match. DId I answer what you wanted me to? I had different lengths..because I used scraps ...when you cut a tube you will see that the first and last cut will be HST ( you can make them all HST..if you wanted to) ..let me know if i didn't tell you what you wanted to know.

I love this pink/white/black combo - I NEED to do some tubing!!

Where can I find instructions to do a tube? I love it.

I love the fabrics you have used. It is beautiful.

I love how you did it all scrappy. I have got to try this method. Looks awesome. :D :D :D :D

How fun the colors play on this pattern great! Good thinking, charismah. Good use of a tute.
