You then cut strips different widths and sew from corner to corner. Just make sure you cut strips long enough to hang over edge. When thru trim to 12 1/2". The string blocks can be made to any size, but her's (and mine) are done to finish at 12 1/2".

OK, CJR, if you will go to Community (at top of page), clk, brings down a list, clk on Groups, click on the left side "Quilting Bee", it brings up the page that has the Themes AND under that is the May Partner list. Your partner is abdconsultant..

Hi all,
My April partner cjr and I have exchanged our blocks. She asked me to post the photos for us. We agreed to swap two block. She sent me the two orange, turquoise and chocolate star blocks, along with a very fun piece of Las Vegas scrap to play with (shame on me, I didn't take a photo of that piece, but trust me, it's a fun piece). She requested a block that represents traveling the USA and any type of building block. I chose to applique a block with our state bird, the chickadee. The house was just a fun paper pieced block. Enjoy, deb in Maine |
Those chickadees are beautiful!

Those chickadees really are too adorable! Love them.
