Yes, the stripsets were already cut and pressed in the right direction (just that took nearly 3 days). But after that it was quite easy to sew 40 strips together again. ;)

It's not the colours I would generally choose, but I do like grey and yellow together.

Are you using jelly rolls or selecting and cutting the fabric yourself ???

@BrendaP: The general colour-choice was made by Mr. Sakar ;) And also the pattern.

I worked from a book (https://www.amazon.co.uk/Twist-turn-Bargello-Quilts-Patchwork/dp/1564779432/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1519724433&sr=1-1&keywords=twist+and+turn+bargello) and the pattern is called Cosmic Twist.

No JellyRolls. I never find some, which I really like and here around they are expensive.
All colours were chosen by Mr. Sakar and cut by myself (and yes, that takes more time than I had expected)

Thinner? Why thinner? Mr. Sakar has atm a lot of work to do, so I am alone at home until late in the evening. And somehow I must get over this lonly time :P
