That is a great idea!! You could pin a piece of paper on the end after you add scraps each time to say how long it is, so it wouldn't be too hard to keep track :)

Good idea! I'll remember that. I'm planning on teaching my grand daughter to sew when she stays with me this summer. Maybe this would be a good project for her. She has never used a sewing machine before. Small pieces and short seams with a long result will give she a sense of accomplishment and make a quick small quilt. Maybe we'll make a doll blanket quilt!

I'm saving this one for my grand daughter as well! Thank you for sharing this!

A friend and I just took a class on this, it is a 2 part class. We go next week to find out just what to do with the strips.

Your info is great, the instructions from our teacher were not very much, we got thru the sewing of the strips up to the 2nd time. After reading you info, now we have an idea of what is going on with it.

Thanks again, we need this QB for help on these little things.
