Last Thursday night’s beginner 2 block class went well but I was so busy helping students sandwich their quilts, I forgot to take pictures. I have quilted one of my 2 block samples but plan to use it to demonstrate squaring up and sewing on the binding so it is unfinished for now.
I just finished a
sample string quilt for a Creative Sewing Center class. It was suggested I make a sample for those
who do not know what string quilts are. The
class will make this exact quilt but explore making various string blocks. This
is just one type. It is a wonderful way to use scraps.
I put this together very quickly and wish I had put the purple border on the bottom instead of the green, but is finished.
I love the bright colors in the string quilt and also the multi-colored border! I've made several string quilts, but never one with this log cabin type block. Might have to try it!
