You don't have to have the Strip Tube ruler for the pattern but it makes it so much faster and easier and well worth getting it! Love the outcome!

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Functional

For: Home

Style: Casual, Traditional


Materials

100% cotton, cotton batting, thread, strip tube ruler

What was your inspiration?

Saw this made up in a quilt shop and my husband and I both loved the pattern. Decided to make it for my husband for Christmas which he loved.

What are you most proud of?

That I got it done for Christmas and it turned out beautifully! And he loved it!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Use the Strip Tube ruler for cutting, it really makes it super easy and works great. Worth the investment. I plan to use it more than just once! Just follow the instructions and have fun! I used some of the extra pieces on the back as you can see so it wasn't so "plain".

Oh, I like this! Interesting block and very nice color scheme. I may have to copy that color scheme one of these days; it is one I've never done.
