Thanks in anticipation. Maybe this is what you are looking for. Google stack-n-slash and you more than likely will find more. |
Did you mean tube piecing? Here's a link to the Missouri Quilt you tube tutorial.

It's called stack and slash. You dont match the pattern like you do with a stack and whack. You just stack the fabrics and cut them and then rearrange the blocks and sew them together.
There is a pattern called Fat Quarter Shuffle that uses this technique using fat quarters. It makes a quilt similar to Yellow Brick road. It's fast, easy and fun. |

I have 2 patterns, bought maybe 7 or 8 years ago, called Kwik Scrappy Star and Kwik Crazy Patch by Two Kwik Quilters,122 Batchelors Trail. Jacksonville,NC28546. Very good instructions and fun to make. Start with 12 inch squares and finish with a 9 inch block. I think anyone who knows the technique could make their own designs (I'm not that clever!)

Thank you all so much - can't beat this board for all the help, thank you!

Stack the Deck by Karla Alexander. Here's her website http://www.saginawstreetquilts.com.
I love using this technique to make crazy quilts with the QAYG method. So much fun. |
