Postage Stamp Quilt coming along

After unrolling my first jelly roll of yummy Moda fabric, and then purchasing THIS time saving new cutting tool, my Postage Stamp Quilt is really starting to take shape. What do you think?

Here are all 48 blocks, each made of 25 squares, laid out in random order. Each square ends up being 2 inches when finished.

That's a total of 1200 two inch squares! Of course using Rachel's easy instructions and that delicious jelly roll of fabric strips, I never had to handle a single 2 1/2 inch square of fabric!

Since these pictures were taken, I've made even more progress on the construction of this quilt top, so hopefully in the next few days I'll be able to share a picture of the finished quilt top.

Happy Stitching!

The spring green squares pop up so randomly and with fewer of them, it makes this look like a strawberry basket. I love it!
