Chaos

Made from a delightful journey of collecting "stripes" for about a year.  Every stripe I found I purchased a little piece of and then used an idea from a "Strata Quilt" book to cut and place my blocks.  I made about 3 quilts using this idea.
The next quilt I made using this idea was for a baby girl, daughter of a childhood friend of my son's.
The original quilt of the three was made from a "strata" (That's where I create the stripes in the fabric by sewing different widths of strips together and making the blocks from these.)  This quilt was made for my Dad's (now wife, then girlfriend) Ruth, who gave me the fabrics she had won in a raffle, as a gift when I first met her.
I like "Chaos" (the last one i made) the best!
