Beautiful, it looks like pretty ribbons!

It's going to be wild and wonderful!

That is an absolute beauty. I love string quilts, made one myself not so long ago and they come together so quickly. You'll have to post a pic of the whole quilt when its finished.

Oh Ditter 43 the blocks are beautiful. I have a bag of scraps leftover from quilts made and think I will do the same. Thanks for the inspiration (I have to finish my projects that are in various stages of complettion first :? ).

I love it! The colors are great--you have wonderful scraps!

Yea I like it.. All those beautiful scraps are making a very impressive quilt. You must be very good at picking out fabric.

What do you think?

I love that you put the SAME strip as the middle piece. That is what makes it look like it is on point! Thanks from a quilter who always learns something new. I can't wait to start one of my own.....after the million I have waiting first!! LOL

What did you back your squares with

cookiej36 08-03-2010 06:07 PM

Hi Trouble:
I used Kona cotton in white. Here is the tutorial I used: http://sewmamasew.com/blog2/?p=6510

I changed the measurements to make a 12" finished block. It was very easy!

trouble 08-03-2010 06:11 PM

I use dryer sheets on the back of mine but they are not 12" blocks

TerryQuilter 04-02-2011 08:52 AM
