    Well I did not see me piecing one by one each piece but sewing jelly rolls strips I know!!! hence I cut the tan fabric in 2'5" strips and mix with bricks and strips of scrap and other fabrics of 2'5". The method is really easy and fast.

    When I've got the three strips joined I cut 1'5" pieces with the shape cut ruler, I put stickers in the cut lines and it works great avoiding mistakes.

    I hope the quick tuto make sense. LOL

    I love this quilt! Love the neutral you've used to set off your colors. Can't imagine what matching all those seams was like, but you've made a gorgeous quilt. Diagonal quilting, as some suggested, would look great, I think.

    Love it! My sister-in-law made a Cinese Coins quilt, but there was space between each row of coins. Love both ways.

    Nice quilt.

    Baptist fans might work for the quilting.
