Interesting but I thought there was too much white background. Interesting concept.

She said it was fun and wasn't worried no one had to tell her she wasn't doing it right. I could see her confidence level rise after each block. .

You could probably cut the block smaller after construction

Thanks for sharing..

You could make any color background depending upon what type of charm pack you use for the tumblers. I'm going to make one but it surely will not be white... I have not jumped on that all-white modern bandwagon yet!

That is exactly what M* is all about.. bringing new people to the craft and having fun! There is nothing like having a hobby to help people relax and enjoy being creative! GB

Hum, maybe a new use for those string blocks (tumblers), of course I'd go a step further and cut the back away from the tumblers. I'd also start with 8 ibch blocks.
