Assemble Strip Sets
1. Sew together enough assorted bright print or solid 8"-long strips to make a strip set about 8" square (Diagram 1).
To join strips with the improvisational curved seams shown here, overlap two 8"-long strips. Rotary-cut a gentle curve within the overlapped portion. Discard narrow excess piece from each strip. Join remaining pieces along curved edges with 1⁄8" seam. Open strips and press seams in one direction.
2. Repeat to make six strip sets total.
