I went onto "Youtube"looking for a different pattern to work with all these strips of fabric. I saw a tutorial for a 45 minute quilt, that sounded good. I stripped the fabric to the appropriate size 2 1/2 " width) then stitched them in one long channel with a bias seam. Now I have about 3000 feet of strips. I brought the end of the strip to the beginning of the strip, therefore making a long loop and cut it crosswise at the distal end. I merrily sewed repeating the process as you can see. When it all came together, several hours later I had an extra long queen sized quilt. Now I have to make borders- maybe tomorrow...
