Amazing scrappy string quilt
 
3 Attachment(s)
Just finished this one. I say 'amazing' because, it never fails.....no matter what scraps you put together, it always "turns out".....just sayn' Not my best quilting....just couldn't seem to get my "rhythm" going on this one. But, it's for me, (until I decide to give it away :) )...so I don't care. Love it anyway!! Also showed my "pieced" backing.

Really like this. are thes strips sewn together and the trimmed to a square and after that cut into triangles? Are all the strips the same width?

Well, it all looks GREAT to me, including your fabulous quilting! Do you just se strata together, cut squares, then quarter? I want to try it since you say that it works regardless of the fabrics used. I have TONS of 2 1/2 in strips that I "over cut" for other quilts and need to use them.
