Macbaby - "I have my blocks sewing in strips, and need to get them sewn together. With the dark green triangles, the quilt has moved into the "does not interest me" stage."

Would you please post a picture so I can see what the green looks like? Thanks!

Finally got the top of mine finished. It measures 49 x 65. Since my strings/scraps are sorted by color, I did a rainbow effect. Lining it with flannel, no batting for a lighter "summer" type quilt. Was a great pattern and I have enough strings to do quite a few more.
Thank you AngeliaNR for sharing such a wonderful pattern with us.

I love your rainbow string quilt.

I need more pale or low volume colours before I could make one of these. I am always drawn to saturated colour, when I am in shops, but when I see the impact low volume fabrics make I am reminded that contrast is a good thing.
