Clever how you did this, thanks for sharing.
I have 8 strips of about 6 inches wide that was left over from one of my stack and whack project, think I'll use this idea to use up those strips.

All of the fabrics came from my stash, and I completely used up 5 pieces of fabric. Woo hoo! Now I hope to have time to quilt it before Easter. Please excuse the awful phone pics.

This is SO pretty!! Bright, and fresh, and unique!! Plus, you used up stash instead of spending $$. Sounds like a winner, all the way around!! Good job!
