Using Scrappy Strips

This is a sample of Strip Cocoon I made as a possible class sample. It is Gudrun Erla's pattern called Strip Cocoon. You can use strips or fat quarters. Around here Jelly Rolls are mighty expensive so I dug into my fat quarter stash for some I thought would go together reasonably well and this is what I can up with. You have to then cut the fat quarters into 2 1/2" strips before doing the necessary subcuts. The only tricky part of this pattern is that it calls for partial seams but it is well illustrated and went together nicely. Now we will have to wait and see if anyone would like this as a class.
Piecefully, Joanne

    I sure like that! The colours and fabrics look terrific together. I get you on the jelly rolls; I made a layer cake quilt using 10" squares from my stash.

    Purple and green look so good together, especially in this pretty design!

    Pretty color combo on your quilt. I'm sure it will generate a class with those pretty fabrics.
