Strips and even more strips

My sister first told me about the 1600 quilt.  She has made two already, that overachiever!   Since then, I have seen one pop up at the Bloggers' Quilt Festival and two more (here and here) at blogs I regularly follow.

Apparently, these are quite fun to make with a group of sew friends while racing to see who finishes first (or work on your personal best time to use racing terms...haha).  If you are unfamiliar with these fast, fun and jelly-roll friendly quilts, watch this video.

Here's my version made with a Mango Margarita bali pop.  How can you go wrong with such luscious colors?!  I have a large leftover piece of orange batik that is already pieced for the backing.

Now to baste, quilt and ship!
