    That is one lucky couple. It is beautiful. The quilting is outstanding and sure accents the modern piecing.

    Copycat - Thank you! From each fabric, I cut random strips from 1 1/2" to 3 1/2" X WOF. I then cut those again a few times. I placed each color fabric on my living room floor and I just pulled randomly, trying to mix grays and neutrals and metallics randomly, so as to not put too many grays together, etc. I also tried to mix sizes (not put two 3 1/2" pieces together. I hope that makes sense.

    That was the first thing I thought when I saw it... 'It's a lot of work to make the stripes look randomly placed'!
