I arranged everything on my design wall as I cut, lining up the colors before sewing them into strips. The final arrangement makes a beautiful modern maze that looks more complicated than it is. After sewing all the sections together, I trimmed off the top and bottom edges. I quilted with gray thread along the top edges of…
