Well, the strips should be....well strips. I'll try to find a pic to show ya. I think those colors should be good enough contrast.

Re: Here's what you've all been waiting for!! Cutting instructions for the MYSTERY QUILT!!

My question is - for the strips, how do you cut the fabric? Are you cutting so that the strips are the length of the fabric (ie the original 4 yards long), or the breadth of the fabric (ie 45" or whatever it is from selvage to selvage). I am quilt-illiterate.

Never mind - I think I found the answer in another post - cut from selvage to selvage.

And the original instructions about 1.5" wide strips is correct, right?!

Re: Here's what you've all been waiting for!! Cutting instructions for the MYSTERY QUILT!!

you know..... my grandmother brought up a good question for me. The check print that I have.... is that going to be too big for this quilt? Cause I notice the strips are so narrow.... and this print is larger..... what you think?

Yes, the original instructions (At the top of this page) are the right ones : )

and here is the link to Jo's pic that explains the cutting. (I really needed a pic, too!!! Thanks Jo!)
