Striped Quilt Challenge

 Beth at Love Laugh Quilt  has been hosting a Striped Quilt Challenge; and this is the last week of the challenge which, of course, ends this weekend.

Here is Beth’s quilt … isn’t it beautiful!  When I saw this, I was inspired to make my own striped quilt.

And, when I joined a month ago, I really believed that I would not have a problem … at least starting a project and even believed that I would surely finish one before the challenge ended.  But here I am, just a few days left,  and all I’ve done is cut a few strips.  I hope this counts as a “start”!

At the time, I knew I had some striped fabric, but I happily envisioned myself going to the fabric store to add to my stash!  Well, that didn’t happen.  And, my limited stash gave me no vision and no plan, so I had to go online for inspiration.  Here are a few quilts I found:

I’m still not sure what I’m going to do.  I’m thinking maybe pinwheels or hour glass blocks, but I do so love the zig-zag design!
