I finished Jungle Strips at the retreat last weekend.
The main fabric, a jungle print, is the center diagonal of each square. I'm not sure where/when I acquired the fabric but I love it. I found fabric in my scrap bins to match the colors in the jungle fabric.
This 52" square quilt has Dream Cotton batting. I used #2784 navy, 50-weight Aurifil thread to quilt this. I stitched in the middle of each of the 1" sashing pieces. Then I crosshatched each of the string blocks. The border has diagonals stitched in various widths. You can see a corner here.
In the middle of each side, I changed the direction of the diagonals.
On the back of this donation quilt, I used fabric that was left over from Mack's Quilt.
One day soon we'll head to University of Wisconsin Children's Hospital. It's time that some children enjoy the pile of the quilts I have upstairs.
