I have step 1 and step 2 DONE!! And step 3 is cut and ready to sew. I did do the string blocks for step 2, even tho I don't like them. Not whining, just saying they aren't my favorite block. And then step 4 is even MORE strings! But I like Bonnie's patterns and trust that it will look amazing when it is done. my string blocks are greens but the color in the picture is kind of washed out, they look better than that. I am using golds for Bonnie's black.
