I love string quilts! When you were arranging the blocks did you do it from the top or the back?

Batting and backing were both cut at 10”. Sashes finished at 1/2” so they’re filled with batting from the blocks (the seam allowances)

Strips that go Corner to Corner are 2 1/2”. The rest were cut at 1, 1 1/2 or 2.

Looks wonderful. Am going to try this method in the future. Have been sewing selvages to phone book pages. Kind of wished I would've done QAYG....oh well.
