Strip piecing consists of sewing fabric strips together, then cross-cutting the strip sets into smaller units and reassembling the units into blocks. When cutting strips for strip piecing, fold the fabric in half, trim off the selvages, and cut the strips crosswise across the full width of the fabric,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], aligning the ruler so it is square with the folded edge.

Tools and Supplies for Strip Piecing Postage Stamp Quilts
Basic quilting supplies and tools are all that’s needed to make Postage Stamp quilts:
Postage stamp quilts consist of hundreds or even thousands of small blocks of quilt fabric sewed together in a random pattern. The postage stamp pattern has always been a favorite with frugal quilters who want to use up small scraps of leftover fabrics. The look is also popular today with quilters who like to make vintage-style quilts with reproduction fabrics.
If the idea of making a postage stamp quilt conjures up nightmares of struggling with piles of tiny squares, banish that thought. Today's fast strip piecing techniques make it easy to assemble a postage stamp quilt without the need for fussy cutting or painstaking sewing of tiny quilting charms. The basic requirement is lots and lots of 1½” fabric strips. Use strips cut from your own stash, or eliminate much of the cutting by buying precut 1½” fabric strips.
