String quilts are awesome! Nothing goes together but everything goes together. Makes me want to tackle my string bins.

I like it a lot. I, also, use old phone book pages for foundations, a trick I got from a quilty sister.

Love it, my next string quilt is going to be sahed with black strips. Makes it pop.

Your string blocks are bright and happy. I love the scrappiness that all comes together with the dark sashing. Looks like stained glass windows in a church. The border is great also. It blends very well with the string blocks. Keep up the great work!
