    Okay, I decided to go ahead and post pictures even though I am not finished. I THOUGHT I was finished untill I put it on the bed. You can't tell from the pictures, but it is short on the sides. I need to make 16 more blocks!!!AAARRRGGG!! I am glad I took the two rows apart and redid then. You can see how pretty the back looks!
    By the time I am through, it will only need a very small border to frame the edge blocks....
    My DH LOVES the quilt and is in AWE of my work! That is a reward in itself! :-D
    Okay, tell me what you think!

    I think I am inspired to work on my string quilt again. LOVE how you put it together with the small sashing strips.
