string quilts
#21
I have never had any trouble with it transfering to my material....just my hands while I am cutting the squares out... but then it does get ironed after the first couple of strips are attached so maybe there is something to that ironing bit!! LOL

:wink: I saw an idea in a book you sew strips or strings together and make your fabric then cut them into diamond shapes, I suppose you could use other shapes, It's a easier way to the old antigue string quilts by Hand unless of course you want to do it the way My Great Granny does it but takes forever!!!!
