String Blocks

I am needing to get some green string blocks done.  So the first thing I did was pull out my very large tote from h**l.  From this picture it sure doesn't look like there are very many green scraps in there but it ended up being very bountiful.

The main problem was I didn't even make a dent in the container of scraps.  It certainly isn't ready for a smaller tote yet.

I cut some strips from the current green fabrics I'm using and so far have ended up with 20 string blocks.

As of right now the blocks have been squared up to 9 1/2".  The papers have been removed.  And they have been cut in half.  Now I'm off of here to make them into bigger and better blocks.

Happy Sewing,

Another Short Post

I just wanted to post a picture of the four newest blocks.  They are going into the larger project after I make them.  So this is the only chance I get to post them.  Until I'm done with the whole thing, that is.  And since it's a secret it may be a while until that happens.

I really like the way these turned out.  Especially the pinwheel in the star.  Click on the picture to get a larger view of these 4" blocks.

Happy Sewing,
