Rhythms - A quilting technique

At the recent Myrtle Beach Quilt show, there was a nice workshop display.  I thought it was so interesting and was such a interesting group project.  All the pieces were beautiful and my pictures don't do them justice. 

Create a 12 x 36 quilt using black Kona cotton for the background and a piece of hand dyed fabric.  Cut the hand dyed  fabrics into horizontal strips with shapes and curves.  Apply these strips onto the black fabric leaving approximately 1/4" between the pieces.  Embellish.

HEY, interesting and looks like fun to do. How are they kept in order ? Probably there aren't weeks in between stitching...
