Hi Barb:
Got first section finished and most of 2nd. I think I should get the gold medal for the most ripping out in any quilt. LOL This is all due to changing machines in mid-stream. So remember folks check the foot before starting on the second machine. Oh well I guess it will be okay. I'm a beginner in this kind of sewing.

I'm glad you are persistent in the seam matching. Would be a shame to do all that work and not have it as close as possible. If I had a Gold Medal, I would give it to you. I'll look and see if I have one around here someplace.

Way to go Colleen. Can't wait to see what you are doing all on your own.
After this, you will be able to chart out your own design on graph paper, do the math, number and color in the squares and for beginning if you keep to three or four repeats of strip sets, you will be able do do them in sections. There is an amazing number of designs you could make.

Betty
you decide if you want to border it or leave this size. I think once you post a photo in the message thread titled sewing the sections together or the one for finished tops, we can discuss what might be best for your quilt regarding borders.
This trophy has been awarded to bbeyes for her persistence in matching 2156 seams in a bargello quilt
keep going Betty

Thank you Barb for doing this tute for us all!
I am learning a lot. I now have a design that I think I am going to work with going with the strips I already have sewn together. I just have to take a day and cut my strips to form the loops. Here is the new diagram that I think I am going to go with.
