I think your quilt is just wonderful! Really is a nice quilt. You did good. You will always run into sopmebody that says you did wrong. Cannot agree with or please everyone. Do what works best for you. I do love your quilt & would tell a Quilt Police to take a long walk on a short pier. :D Enjoy & love your quilt. You put a lot of work into it so now enjoy! Personally I really love it! :thumbup:

I always cut my "strings" for strip quilts on the straight grain. Who doesn't? lol

Since it would not occur to me to cut those strips on the bias, would someone explain to me why they should be/could be? And I love your quilt, I think it is cheerful and lots of work!
