It's a finish!
String Quilt
40 x 50
I made this one with lots of novelty strings.
I made 10.5 inch blocks using a paper foundation.
Quite awhile ago someone gave me some 2 inch width strips with teddy bears. I set those aside for the centers of a string quilt. I had almost enough for these 20 blocks. I had to use a different fabric for two blocks.
I quilted it with swirls.
The backing is an aqua with gold swirls.
And I can't believe I actually started and finished something in the same month!
And sew on...
Wow! Another quilt - love it! You are getting excellent at quilting swirls. -Beth in AL

Hugs for a great upcoming weekend...Julierose
It looks great! There are no ends to the possibilities for scrappies!
ReplyDeleteWow, started and finished in one month! I’m pretty sure I pulled that off once……. ;-)
ReplyDeleteCongratulation on the great start and an awesome finish in the same month! Whoowhoo! Do you use paper to sew the strings? Lots of people do and I'm having a hard time figuring out why. Enjoy! ;^)
