1 1/4 inch strips

Lots of sewing and only 5 blocks. Oh well! I think I started this because I saw a magazine article about the older patterns that are being revived. Last year, boy that sounds funny, I cut strips in 1 1/2 and 1 1/4 inch strips as I was handling the fabrics. I thought about making these in between making other quilt blocks. That way I won't get so bored with making all one style of blocks.

Sure is a mixture of different fabrics and yet it will be a utility quilt with a definite attitude.

I thought about using the Bishop Fan quilt design for the quilting on this quilt. I thought it would make a definite statement of looking old. Chris
