I cut a strip off (nearly) every piece of quilting fabric I own (it's a LOT, despite my recent stash busting phase)...
sorted it into color families....
then cut those strips to approximately 12" lengths.
Now I am sewing those little strips all together to make bands of color.
I am going to try to incorporate all those fabrics into one quilt top.
A nice little benefit: I am adding to my stash of scraps. Hurray!

What a terrific idea, look forward to seeing it come together. I want to get into my scrap bucket and cut pieces for a quilt from that.
This looks like it's going to be yet another beautiful creation! I cannot wait to see the finished product. You really should teach classes or something! Your passion is contagious and your talent is really remarkable =) Thank for the birds eye view into your life. The house looks gorgeous, can't wait to see what the kitchen looks like!
Can't wait to see you put this all together and I'm sure you'll get it finished in record time!
Congrats on the move! Hope your head has stopped spinning by now! HA.
That’s some wonderful idea! Your arm must hurt after all the cutting!
You have great fabric Amanda. Where does most of it come from?

That looks great so far. It's going to be fabulous with all those colors. And, a few look familiar... ;)

Oh, I can't wait to see it! I bet it's gorgeous like the rest of them.
That is a totally awesome idea! I can't wait to see the result...
Now that you've finished a few projects, you feel you need to add onto your wip's? :-) I'm the same way!
Talk about resourceful and inspiring!

What a great idea and a great way to use up lots of unassigned fabric. I'll check back to see what it looks like. Have a great weekend!

Totally crazy but I bet its going to look great.
That just might end up being one big quilt. It will be pretty though.
This is a cool quilt...I 've seen some of the strips sewn together.
I'll bet that one will be fabulous when you are finished with it. Such pretty colors! Can't wait to see it.

I can't wait to see how this comes along. I love quilts with strips of colors (I mean, I think I understand where you're going with this), and I know yours will be fabulous!
