    I figured scrolling through the 9 pages of the other was a pain... so I'll start this one. I have 17/35 strips together--one strip shy of half way! I see movement!! :-D :-D :-D I'll post some of the photos from the start so progress can be followed. I hope to finish the top, but maybe not with borders, in the next few days.

    I'm not feeling an addiction to this pattern just yet. :lol:

    The color choices

    Strips together. Can you see the two I switched at the last minute? lol

    Strips all cut up and labeled. 0.75" to 2.5"

    Colors are charted and I'm ready to sew!

    The first two rows--holy moly--thinking I should have gone for a double bed size!!

    Four rows together--it's 3" wide and won't lay flat from all the thread!

    One strip shy of half done! I see MOVEMENT! :-)

    Another angle--kind of. It's now 17" wide. I love how strip #5 blends two sections.

    Your quilt is going to be drop dead gorgeous. Fall colors are my favorite but I hate, hate, hate to select fabrics - - I am terrible at it. You did a wonderful job of fabric/color selection. Can't wait to see the finished product.

    Mesmerizing. The top of the ribbon looks like glass. I love it and have enjoyed the photos as you are working on it. Your fabric choices are excellent.
