Thanks so much for posting this tut, and visually in steps; great to share with my charity quilt sewing friends. We will do quite a lot in the fall. I agree with someone else, you could shift "the cut seams" up & down for different effects. i.e. every 2nd seam (2,4,6,8), staggered (1,3,1,3,1,3).
Very pretty fabrics too!
