    Judith1005, your quilt is great! It's amazing how those scraps just keep multiplying on their own, isn't it?

    Your quilt is beautiful! The only string quilt I have made so far was with black and white prints. I guess I have some OCD because I cut my strips in 4 different widths so all the diagonals matched (More or less!). I liked the result, but took longer than I expected. Hopefully one of these days I will make a truly scrappy one!!

    Hi Jeanne,

    My strips are more or less about an 1 1/2 wide. Some a little less, some a little more. I didn't like it if the strips were more then 2 inches. So, I did do a little trimming. So, not completely scrappy here either. lol

    Your string quilt is gorgeous! I really like that you used white in the center of each square. It really makes your quilt look great.
