String quilt

Post by purrfect-lady » Sat May 07, 2022 7:41 am

Because I can’t stand to throw out any bits of fabric that could possibly be used, I have been saving string pieces for years. 1 inch to one and a half inch wide, any length. In spare moments I have been sewing these pieces together and finally finished this one, my second, today, May 7. It measures 75“ x 88“. I have LOTS of 'strings' still of various lengths if anybody wants any. I don't think I want to make any more of these.

That looks amazing. Looks neat going vertical and horizontal rather than diagonal. Really looks like stain glass window.
