Don't you just love string blocks? Over at Quiltville we just finished a mystery with string blocks - ours were 8 1/2" then sliced in half at the triangle end and these two and two more sliced string blocks were added to make the main block - it is gorgeous - the fabric really moves.
As to color, I would add a gorgeous pop in color - maybe a darker blue??? Batik maybe?

I don't know what color to use as the joiner strips. I think this will be the most important choice for the success of this quilt.

My bedroom walls have a cobalt blue in a batik look.

I will appreciate suggestions!
