    Default Starting my second quilt (String Quilt)
    Here is the start of my second quilt going to be a string quilt. I haven't chose the border or back yet. It will be 100"X 100"

    Here is a pic of the fat quarters cut up.

    Here is a block I embroidered for the quilt, it will go in the middle or lower right corner I haven't decided yet.

    This quilt is for my wife.
