Another String quilt.
 
1 Attachment(s)
I really like making the string quilts. They go together so easily. Using black as the connector color really makes the fabric pop. This is my fourth one. it's a great way to use those left overs.
I used to be a gal who made quilts out of two or three colors of fabric but my tastes have grown to include so many things, thanks to all the lovely quilts I see here.

Great quilt. I think you and I must have similar tastes because many of your strings look familiar to me! :)

Beautiful quilt, love the black too. I too use to make only matchy matchy quilts and someitmes I still too. I am loving the scrappy quilts and starting to do more of them.

patsynel 08-29-2012 08:01 AM

Love your scrappy quilt and the black fabric is perfect.

the old one 08-30-2012 02:19 AM

Totally agree, strip pieced quilts are too much fun. And yours is very pretty.

Iraxy 08-30-2012 02:52 AM

I love what my family calls loud quilts. They are just so happy. Plus, you can see so many beautiful fabrics all in one quilt. And...since I use a stabilizing fabric for the scraps and then use batting, they are toasty warm in the winter. These things make these quilts the ones to go for and subsequently they get used and loved more! They fill all my requirements for a quilt. Gotta love 'em.

Shayvian 08-30-2012 04:10 AM

This quilt is absolutely gorgeous! I have been trying to get up the courage to try a string quilt. Do you have to square up the muslin before you cut it out? Thanks!

sue1964 08-30-2012 04:20 AM

Nice and bright. Love it
