As most of us, I have plenty of strings or potential strings and this is interesting to the eye. Would like to try it. To make it smaller a block of strips 9,5“ x 6,5“ is used then you measure 1,5“ on the top right and 1,5“ on the bottom left and draw a line where you cut the block in half (it’s a 45 degree angle) and sew it together like the large block shown in that pattern. I have asked that lady who I originally got the pattern of on FB if I can share, if so I will send it on QB Good luck !!! |
In my quest to use scraps, that is a keeper. Thanks for sharing.

Well this looks like my next scrappy quilt right here. This string block looks like a whole lot of fun and easy enough to do.
|
I like the idea of adding straight grain sashing between the blocks to control the blocks bias edges.
|
Looks interesting. I may try it.
|
fantastic.....Thank you!!
|
I like this a lot. Do you have a link to any instructions?
(I can see how it might be assembled, but instructions might prevent ripping out stitches...) Sew a bunch of strips together, then sew them to the center square, one side, then another side, and another...? |

And thank you Elfi2 for posting your great blocks. |
How would this be enlarged to a 12 1/2" unfinished block?
