WOW!! great colors - Its like they are coming right up off the quilt and floating in air. A fine piece of art!!! If I had your talent I doubt I would give up making these - you could make alot of money selling these if you wanted to!!!

Wow! You picks some great colors. But 3/4" strips - I can see why you wouldn't want to repeat it.

You did an awesome job on this. Maybe the frustration of working with narrow strips is still too fresh in your head because it would be a shame not to use your considerable talent on another one. Maybe one of the ones in the book that uses wider strips. I know there were a couple in that book where the narrowist strip was 1 1/4 unfinished.

This is from an old magazine, I think. It is a design by Chris Timmins of Australia. I couldn't find a link for it or a reference to a book. Maybe someone here could find it.
