string quilt

Looks great!
I haven't done much reading on strings, but why do you have to use a foundation, paper or fabric? You can't just sew the pieces together, like a railfence or piano key border? I'm not understanding.

I really love your quilt, Ruth!!! If you put it away, I hope it's not for long! :D
I love scrappy quilts, and especially the string ones. I bought a bunch of string blocks like yours off Ebay almost two years ago, and still haven't put them together yet. I haven't quite figured out how to sew them together! I think they have muslin on the backs.

Your string quilt is really pretty! A lady at my Wed sewing group does this quilt using phone book pages. Maybe it would be easier, it seems to be thinner. The only string quilt I've made is one using muslin as a foundation. I haven't tried the paper method yet.
