Next I found both ends and started sewing. When I was almost the opposite end, I cut the fold. The quilt is now 2 strips wide by about 800 inches. Just repeat until finished. 48x60(approx) Our group did this as a race. We started after everyone had all the strips sewn end-to-end. Mine took 53 minutes!

Second pic is a closeup of the quilting. I did an edge to edge using Hobbs 80/20 batting and Glide thread. Quilting is done on my Gammill Classic.

Thanks for looking

Nancia, I clicked on the refresh button and for some reason, only red x's. I do not know who the moderator is so I can see if they can bring it up.

I bought one of the strip packs from the Thanksgiving sale at Connecting Threads and just made one top for less than $8. I don't have anyone in mind for it so it might be for me!
