Okay, I decided to go ahead and post pictures even though I am not finished. I THOUGHT I was finished untill I put it on the bed. You can't tell from the pictures, but it is short on the sides. I need to make 16 more blocks!!!AAARRRGGG!! I am glad I took the two rows apart and redid then. You can see how pretty the back looks!
By the time I am through, it will only need a very small border to frame the edge blocks.... My DH LOVES the quilt and is in AWE of my work! That is a reward in itself! :-D Okay, tell me what you think! |
I think I am inspired to work on my string quilt again. LOVE how you put it together with the small sashing strips.
|
Good Job. I did one simular and love it. I like that fact that when you are done you don't have to quilt it!!

I love Strings. It is beautiful and colorful.

I grew up helping my mom make string quilts with newspaper squares to piece them too. It was always my job to tear the newspaper off when she got a square made. Did you make this by Betty Cottons quilt as you go or another method? I love your quilt. It brings back memories.
