Default Starting my second quilt (String Quilt)

Here is the start of my second quilt going to be a string quilt. I haven't chose the border or back yet. It will be 100"X 100"

Here is a pic of the fat quarters cut up.

Here is a block I embroidered for the quilt, it will go in the middle or lower right corner I haven't decided yet.

This quilt is for my wife.
