So, after you've stripped............

End result is a tote bag, front and back. What? You were expecting something else? Read on for visuals..........yes......there are pictures. Now don't get too excited, you might fog up the computer screen.

After cutting strips you've sewn together, resew them as checkerboards.Make sure that you alternate colours, and you can cut off the end pieces later. A little time consuming, but what else are you going to do with your time?

This is how it all starts. Sew the humungous long strips together....17 at a time, to make a panel. Then you can cut them up into whatever size checkerboards that you wish. Makes for an exciting time, on those dark and stormy nights.........get your friends together for a stripping party.....use different fabrics, alternate darker with lighter colours.
