Strips of Goodness

I have been very busy designing.  There is a pieced quilt top on my sewing room couch waiting to have the binding sewn on by hand and another that is about to be sandwiched together for quilting.  These however are Secret Squirrel projects so I can't share yet!

I do have something that I can show you though that I am very pleased with.  It is a Kaffe Fasset design from his book "Simple Shapes, Spectacular Quilts".  The design is very simple and easy to make.  It is simply 4 large pieces made out of 2 inch and 3 inch strips. Such beautiful colors.


These strips then go together, laid out on the floor to get an idea of colour distribution, like so:



Then when I am happy with how it looks I sew them together.  This is one bit that I have already sewn together.
