Boxes of Strings is finished

I used the QB tutorial here Basic Instructions for Boxes of Strings

It took a lot longer than I usually spend on a donation quilt. It was a great challenge, but I don't think I'll do another one.

Well done! I am at 41 blocks on mine and I think I will need about that many again for a full size quilt.

Nicely done. I'm not having as much time as I would like to work on mine--with spring gardening and all. I'm using dryer sheets as the foundation and it's working well. I may keep this one for myself!! Would make a nice wall hanging.

Another gorgeous scrappy.

For some reason I thought "the White Cliffs of Dover" when I saw it first. Not that I have seen the White Cliffs of Dover in reality only in pictures.
