I attend a local quilt guild called Material Girlfriends in Shelbyville, Indiana. (picture below) For our Christmas 2019 party we played the game Left, Right, Center. Everyone had to bring five 2.5 inch strips of fabric and we rolled the dice and threw the strips in the center or left or right. You keep playing until the last person has strips and that person wins all the strips in the center. I Won all the strips! (second picture) Never did I think I would have time to make anything out of them, well this year (2020) has brought me some time.

I divided the strips into piles. The first quilt was for my friend Amelia because she has moved from Indiana to Texas. I sewed 17 strips across (2.5×40) and then a light colored fabric (6.5×40) then added 17 strips across the top. (2.5×10) I added a 6.5 inch border around. I added the word Home with the state of Indiana in place of the “o”. The second quilt is from the Christmas strips.
