I decided to make another Quilt of Valor using leftover 3.5 inch cut strips. I had made the floating stars earlier in the year so all I had to do is sew my leftovers end to end, press, measure and sew together. This quilt is based on Lisa Sutherland's Strippy Stars.
pattern inspiration: Lisa Sutherland's Scrap Strips and Star
After I have my strips sewn end to end, I rough cut the strips then sew along the length. For example, if I want my strata to be 48.5 inches then I cut my strips at 52 inches and trim to my desired size.
I also sewed the borders onto this quilt. Yes, it really is this quick since I already had the floating stars made. :)
