    Thanks Chris, I worried about piecing the back to be the exact same size of the quilt, but thought I almost had to. It worked out ok, I quilted all the oustside blocks to keep the edges even and then quilted the center block. I had forgotten that I had two block turned the wrong way in one of the quilts. I guess it is loved anyway.

    Both of you quilts are amazing. I love scrappy and I love strings. It always amazes me how beautiful string quilts turn out based on the variety of fabrics used. Lovely work.

    Your string quilt turned out beautiful and your niece will really love it.

    Your quilt is very beautiful. I love your crumb blocks and the border really pulls it all together. It will be well loved.
