Strip Quilt

After our first attempt a couple of years ago and some success with a few members actually "finishing" their quilts, our quilting group has decided to do another Friendship Quilt.
This time we are doing strips, and the handover is tonight.  As usual, I work best under pressure, so finished mine at 11 last night!!

Well, I just finished mine and popped it in the box about 15 minutes ago Annie!! So, you haven't done too badly! Your Strip looks amazing - after looking at that book at your place last time, I had to have it and it is now on its way to me. See you tonight.

Ooh, lovely. Is this just part of the quilt then, or is it called a strip quilt because it's made from strips? Quilting is quite mysterious to a beader!

Well done Annie! I finished mine about 7 last night. Nothing like a last minute rush. Yours looks great!

Love the colours Annie and the design is pretty darn good too.

So are you exchanging strips to partners? Is there a color/pattern theme? Love your strip. I've seen that book on another blog somewhere and it looks very interesting.

Your strip looks brilliant - would love to find a copy of that book - looks interesting.

Love your strip! Look forward to see the rest!
Last minute...I know how that is!
I'm a last minute-worker, and I work best under pressure! But often I've had an idea working in my head for a long long time, before I come to the last minute!
