Starting a new quilt top

Mother and I have started another quilt. We wanted to make one that Jeff and Jason can use on their new bed (see in pictures in another post coming soon.) The quilt's name is Crossroads to Jericho. We found it in a quilting book our friend gave us called "Scrap Quilts - fast and fun" compiled and edited by Patricia Wilens.

Below is a picture of the quilt in the book.


We have cut all of the strips (for strip quilting), and Mother has already pinned a couple of the strips. We are looking forward to sewing it all!

Mother on right, cutting, and me on left holding. :)




Here are all of the fabrics we are using. 9 of the fabrics are blue, and 9 of them are other random colors! The neutral fabric behind is what we're using for inbetweeners.

Us again. Look at that concentration on my face!
