I WON!!!

Sorry for the yelling but I'm doing the happy dance right now! I won the Connecting Threads giveaway over at It's Sew Kiki's blog. I won the grand prize of a new set of threads. I love their threads and I can't wait to get it! I might have to make one of those quilts where the thread is quilted in a design to look like piecing. 

I've never won a giveaway before and still can't believe I've won now! I know I'm just gonna squeal when they come in :oD

On page 7 is a picture tutorial and somewhere in there is a discussion of making different sizes and using different widths. She used to have a PDF printout for free but you could just print the first page.  Anyways, I used my JoAnn's, 20 strip jelly roll to try this out.  I wanted to also separate the strips by piecing squares in between them. I really like that look for this quilt so I chose a crazy scrap I had laying around and cut twenty 2 1/2 inch squares. The jelly roll had only ten different fabrics, 2 strips of each, so I pieced squares on one end of each strip. I should clarify, you need to piece strips of
