Finished Tube Strip Quilt Top

I'm having to show quilt tops, because my stretched Juki was having problems, and I had to send it off to be repaired -- it's gone since January (a very long story) and I MISS IT!!!

I did finish this scrappy tube strip quilt top.  I want to use up all of my scraps, as I'm changing to a more modern style and the fabrics don't work for me any more.  So I used a lot of different fabrics in this quilt.

The tutorial I used is here at A Bright Corner Strip Tube Tutorial. It's an interesting technique that I'd never used before.  Sewing those long strips was pretty boring, but the end result was fast and pretty!

Has anyone else used this technique?  How do you like it?  Did you do scrappy, or a pattern?
