Zebra of a different stripe

Or strip. Yesterday Crystal and I got together to have a little lesson on making fabric strips. We’re each making a “Trip around the world” quilt and I’m teaching her as we go. I learned to make this quilt forever ago in a “quilt in a day” class but we’ll break it up into short bits of an hour or so. Before I start I always make a little cheat sheet so I remember which fabrics are meant for which border and the order I want the squares to go. I also iron every step of the way. After we made our strips I brought mine home and got them ironed and ready to go for the next lesson.

  1. See the whole ironing thing is why I could never take up quilting. Well, that and the sewing part…

  2. That’s going to be such a nice quilt. I love the colors.
