Beautiful quilts. I fell in love with the first one and then oohed and awed over the second. How did you know I love fall colors and blues. Great job on both.

Is there a tutorial for making the strip quilts.They look like they would be fairly quick quilts to put together and they are nice looking quilts. You did really good. :-D

Here is a link to a lot of string quilt patterns, including a quilt as you go block.

Thanks that is such a great site I wondered if it was done in a long strip or in squares. And there is so much more thank you again :-D

The first string quilt I made, I used a muslin background but since I am a hand quilter I didn't want the extra layer of fabric to quilt through so for the others I made, I did it without the base of muslin I just sewed strips together using my clear square to make sure my strip was long enough and just squared it up when I was done.
