Thanks Chris, I worried about piecing the back to be the exact same size of the quilt, but thought I almost had to. It worked out ok, I quilted all the oustside blocks to keep the edges even and then quilted the center block. I had forgotten that I had two block turned the wrong way in one of the quilts. I guess it is loved anyway.

Oh my, how beautiful!

Both of you quilts are amazing. I love scrappy and I love strings. It always amazes me how beautiful string quilts turn out based on the variety of fabrics used. Lovely work.

Her favorite color is green so I used a pastel green for the sashings and a green and white plaid for the back. I estimate that it used approximately 7.5 yards from stash. Of course the string bins don't look any less full ...

Your quilt is very beautiful. I love your crumb blocks and the border really pulls it all together. It will be well loved.
