string quilt question
#16
I just stitched my strips together, cut apart into triangles, then stitched into blocks and added sashing and corners. Now I'm hand quilting SID to fleece as batting/backing combo. Really like how it's coming out.

Flannel makes a nice batting, especially with the muslin foundation, and your backing fabric. I think that this would still be a warm quilt, although it would still be light! Enjoy your strings!

Your string quilts are very nice Question--is there a pattern for this?? How do you start?? Mom 6 says she sewed strips together then cut in triangles then what? As you can tell I am no quilter want to learn tho. Also what size are the strips & how big a piece do you make before cutting into triangles. I guess you then sew 4 to make a block--How big is the block?? Boy do I have a lot of ?? Oh and Kathy your quilt is really nice with the dark blue strips going thro all the blocks. Thanks
