    Thanks for sharing everyone. I've been really wanting to do one of these with my scraps but haven't gotten around to it. Maybe I'll start today, thanks for inspiring me.

    Can't add one, or can't see one?

    To add a picture: when you click "reply", you should get a box with a gray border and a bar with some letters and symbols at the top of the box. The "add picture" symbol is the third one from the right, it is tiny and looks like a tree in a box. When you hover your cursor over it, it says "insert image".

    If you don't see this bar at the top of your reply box, PM me and I'll be happy to walk you through your settings to fix it.

    Wow, love this quilt!!! The string colors are perfect for the appliqued middle. What beautiful work!

    After seeing so many beautiful string quilts, we shouldn't bemoan our scraps, should we?

    Nolee, I love yours with the black accents - I need to make one like that. The others are all lovely, too -- what's the best is they are all different, so while we each may make a string quilt, they are so varied its part of the charm....
