QAYG and Piecing Method, Nametag Challenge; September 2015

Our program this month was given by Sharon on the Quilt as You Go (QAYG) flip and sew method. She also showed a great method to piece the quilted blocks together using strips. There are several methods. Everyone enjoyed the presentation, and there was great interaction with the members. 

Here is a video of a piecing method that is similar at Gourmet Quilter: here.

Here is a great example of modern QAYG quilt.
