In this next quilt I am still using the narrow, joining strips, as in Crazy Shortcut Quilts, but the blocks are liberated or improvised.....which ever term you prefer.

By using oversized blocks and random or improvised joining strips, the overall design of the quilt is no longer dominated, by the joining strips.
I used a mix of wovens and flannels. There are those spirals again, many are off center to add to the wonkiness.
No matter how you fold the quilt, you get a different look. It's like each block is a mini art quilt on it's own.
