    I love both of these quilts they are great. The second one is just lovely. I do know that on many of the patterns for those strip pieced quilts, the strips in the assembled units are not supposed to match up. I know Kaffe Fasset has a pattern like that and they aren't supposed to line up. It adds to the visual interest of the quilt. So you probably didn't do anything wrong.

    on string quilts, unless every string is exactly the same width as every other string, it's not possible for the strings to match up.

    if you go to the heartstrings website, you can see that unless she diddles the designs around, hers don't either.

    As the wife of a soldier and mother-in-law of another one, I just want to say a personal "Thank you!" and also that I think both quilts are beautiful.
