This baby ended up being king sized!!
She's finished and ready to be quilted!! I made the mistake of laying the partially completed top on our bed and fell in love!! We really don't need another quilt but I can't let this one go! Thank you so much for the wonderful tute! I used ultra light weight fusible interfacing for the foundation (Fabricland had bolts of it on sale for a ridiculously low price. It was 20 inches wide and I used almost 18 yards!!)
Oh and I should add that I put out a call to our sewing group and was given a lot!! narrow strips and scraps. So happy to make something out of them. The next one will be a community quilt for our guild outreach program.

Thank you for the instructions and ideas on using different sizes.
GingerK what a beautiful quilt. The idea of light fusible web as a foundation is a good idea.
I have lots of strings. Maybe I will start with a small one and see how it goes.

This is a wonderful tutorial. Thanks so much for sharing your techniques with all of us. Can't wait to get started on this and as a leader-ender project, like someone else said, this will be perfect.
