String Lap Quilt
 
1 Attachment(s)
My latest string lap quilt for my local Hospice.
It is about 40 x 50" good size for our wheelchair patients.
I started each square with a 1-1/2" black strip.
Used 12" deli paper

It is really a beauty! I love the colors you chose. Is it mostly made from scraps of other projects?

Yes, it is ALL made from scraps from other projects, only new fabric was for border and binding.

Very nice and very masculine. I can see a man really liking it. Good job.

I too like the colors of the fabrics a lot. You did a very nice job. I think I would want to keep it for myself. :-)

I'm a big scrappy string quilt maker and I have to say yours is a great one, using the same size strips gives it a special look and your color choices are wonderful. Keep up the great work, May in Jersey

I usually am not a fan of string quilts - I just changed my mind. Those colors are fantastic!

sniktasemaj 10-26-2012 04:31 PM

Nice color choice. I am sure one person is going to be lucky.

Great looking. I love how the black sets off the blocks.

Both the quilt and the sentiment of giving are beautiful.

I love your quilt! It's awesome!

deedum 10-28-2012 05:11 AM

very nice.. I like the idea of starting off with a black strip. Really defines it. I love making these blocks. I hope to make some for the nursing home patients. I did send some cozy shoulder shawls to the nh. Haven't heard back whether they liked them or not yet.
