Re the string blocks, Judy did say it would be possible to substitute a 6.5 in string block for these darks, but probably not possible to substitute the blocks which will come later.

What I'm going to do is 'create' 12 X [7.5" square] blocks, each in a different colour, and strings sewn on the diagonal. These will then be sliced and diced into quarters, which I will be able to mix and match into 4-patches as per the original pattern (I know will have to trim a bit). I hope that the directional strings will form a secondary square-within-a-square effect...

Spent this afternoon sorting out my drawers
