Afternoon! I've admired scrappy string quilts for a long time but never tried my hand at one. I saved my strings, though - anything less than 2" went into a separate bin for "someday". My mom recently found an old phonebook when she was tidying my Nanna's house and brought it home after remembering that I was looking for one.
I whipped all of these blocks out last Sunday. When I next feel inspired to work on it, I think I'm going to add a large inner border, another border of additional string blocks, and then one more outer border. I'm looking forward to watching it grow! There are plenty more strings where these came from. The blocks are all 7" finished because that's the size the pages trimmed most easily.
(There are a lot of Celtic Solstice scraps in here too!)
