Block pattern from "Strips That Sizzle"
By Margaret J. Miller (c) 1992
I had a lot of yellow left from Jeopardy I - here -
So I made the center of Jeopardy II yellow -
I made the blue borders for balance -
And instead of blocks of 1/2-blue and 1/2-yellow-
I made each block from the same color family -
The backing fabric is a fabulous blue, white, and yellow print -
QJ - 1995

I have that book and have never made a thing out of it - I think I have an aversion to strips :-)
I like this one! I love yellow to begin with but the backing really tied it all in together. Is it one that lives at your house?
YES - this one lives at my house. It used to hang on the wall in the hallway where my design wall is now - ;))
You and your strips - they are actually VERY easy and REALLY fun - no matchy-matchy perfect cuts - just sew the dang things to some paper - cut them however - and take the paper off . Sew first - cut later - no thinking - and perfect for scraps - ;))
