I have both sizes and colors to finish sewing--then I will need to square them up!!!Here's a pic of my red-burgandy-purple strings.I'm about halfway done sewing these.
Have a safe and Happy New Year everyone!

Picture 1 are my blocks, picture 2 if of this morning's sunrise. Colors seem to coordinate very well.

Lay 'm straight
I've completed sewing the center blocks, and laid them out to get ready to sew them together today. I was really concerned I would get them messed up, they are so busy it wasn't easy to see the errors. When I sat down to take a break, it was much easier to see when I looked at it from a corner - seeing it on the diagonal I could more easily tell if the blue string blocks were going the right way. What a quilt, I'm sure this is the most difficult one I've ever done, but sure am glad I did!
