I have done a couple of quilts sewing the short ends of WOF strips- print to solid, so I have a tube. Usually, I have cut the solid color with the print ones in the center staggered. The black strip one was a recent one. This time, after my mom sewed the tubes, I cut the print, in this case, the batiks, and staggered the white in the center. It needs a good pressing and trimming before I get the backing ready.
The tubes

I had to come check out your blog after seeing your comment on Missy's blog!! You are in Buffalo and I'm a mere hour away in Wyoming County! Love the batik quilt and especially your chief quilt tester. Tugger is invited to join the Feline Friday linky party on my blog any time =^..^=

I don't get it. Width of Fabric I get. Short end, meaning the 3 inch of a 3 by 42 WOF strio, sewn together. How does that become a tube?
I get it! And I really like the effect. Good idea to try cutting the print instead of the solid.
