I made my only (so far) string quilt. I will share my mistakes, so you might not make them. I made my quilt from a photo, so there were not instructions and I left my brain outdoors that week.
1. Press each string after you sew it. You can add one string to each side to minimize the start/stop frustration.
2. Read directions before you start or watch a video. (I just went for it with no knowledge of what I was doing.)
3. You might want to watch
Donna Jordan's tutorial. (She just finger pressed as was her way, but my nails are not that strong.)
4.I used pages from an old telephone book for a foundation. Some have suggested dryer sheets. I've heard that If you use plain fabric for a foundation, you end up with a really heavy quilt.
My quilt turned out OK, but it was a bear to border and I had to remake some of the squares.
Well, I forgot to turn the photo, but I'm sure you get the idea.
