    I'm posting this mostly so Lockeb can see the blue fabric. I used the tube quilting method and quilt as you go. It was really easy. I'll try to find time to do a tute on it, but in a nutshell... you need to cut 1 1/8" strips and 1 3/4 strips. Fold the 1 3/4" in half lengthwise. This goes on top of the block and the 1 1/8" goes on the bottom with raw edges even with block edges; Sew through all 3 with 1/4" seam. Join the next block by matching up the back of it with the 1 1/8", sew 1/4 inch seam; press all flat, double strip is top join and narrow strip is bottom join. Stitch top down however you want to stitch it. Sorry, I don't have time to do photos right now.

    Really nice quilt. Tried following your instructions and got lost a little. I'll have to sit and concentrate a little later. Great job!!!!
