When I posted my string quilt flimsy a few weeks ago, Jen messaged me to offer me some more string blocks. She had these from a swap, but didn't know when she would get around to using them, could I use them?
Well clearly I don't have enough fabric, or UFOs (please don't look at the UFO & PHD tab) so of course I accepted, and just look what she sent me. FAR too gorgeous to cut down to extend the previous top, and with just a few more squares will make a fab top in its own right.
What can I say? Except thank you, thank you, THANK YOU Jen
I started this blog for me - it expanded to show BFF Jackie what I was doing - and a few others have invited themselves too - everybody welcome! Mostly about patchwork, with random comments about embroidery, family and life in general, come on in, put your feet up, and I'll put the [virtual] kettle on.
This is looking great. How kind of Jen :)
ReplyDeleteYeah, you *totally* needed a new project...
ReplyDeleteQuite fabulous indeed!
ReplyDeleteI think new projects stop being counted once you reach 20!
ReplyDeleteAnother project? Lovely, but shouldn't you be working on your twisted log cabin (or perhaps you are, in secret!)?
ReplyDeleteYou really did need more blockd especially when they are s fsb as those ones!
ReplyDeleteString quilts are fab, aren't they. Not worrying what goes with what and going for it. I think that's why I'm enjoying the scrappy trip block when I revisit making them like I did last weekend. Have fun with them.
