The nice thing about this pattern is that the strips can be any width that you want or that works best for the width of the scraps you are using. I personally have made them with 2", 4" and 6" strips.
The nephew's quilt was leftover homespuns and dark boyish prints with a frog print border.
The niece's was mostly flowery pinks and purples strips. The border is 4 yellow prints, with one that especially cute - cheerful monkeys.
Both had plain sheets as the backing, and were tied with yarn every 2-3".
They were made to be used and the last time I saw them a couple years ago, they were looking pretty ragged. I'm glad they liked them and used them.
