    Another place to see tube quilting is at http://www.wondercutruler.com/ I have the ruler and it is quick and easy--AFTER you find your fabrics. Finding the right fabrics is always a challenge for me.
    The site has a lot of finished quilts for ideas, so be sure and look around.

    I am only going to be doing a small doll quilt most likely but can help those that would like to make something bigger.
    Our local quilt shop has a demo on tube quilting scheduled for the end of the month. I am dying to see it and yours also. It should be very interesting.

    Now for lay out you can use any of the ones that use the two tone blocks, like the log cabin, I have to find a few more strips to do a few more but you get the picture.
    Thanks for pix!

    Can't help noticing the picture in your avatar. I just got back from a week long cooking vacation in Positano Italy and this looks like that place. Is it?

    I found a simple tube quilt (all strips, no triangles) that I will try to photo as I make it. Love these rotary cutters!

    Would this work with denim (old jeans) or do you think it would be too thick?

    I just love MSQC videos. Better check this one out. I too have no idea what tube quilting is. Sounds fun!
