Almost done


This is going a lot faster than I thought it would... I worked on it for two hours tonight while watching America's Got Talent and got quite a bit done.

Earlier today, I joined in with Amanda at http://crazymomquilts.blogspot.com/2017/06/june-quilt-qal-week-2.html on this month's quilt a long.  I'm doing my strings a little differently because I used phone book pages so that I don't have to worry about the pieces curving.  Since I decided that I'd do the larger quilt, I need 100 strip blocks, which isn't as bad as it sounds - I whipped out 20 while listening to two movies this afternoon.   This will be another charity quilt and I think I'll be using the same green fabric that I used for the black, white & green one that I just finished ( well, it still needs to be quilted).

I've got LOTS of strings...

The top pic is strings that I plan on using next.  Behind them, you can kind of see the string blocks I've already made.  Bottom pic is the tub of strings that I have ... I have a feeling that I might be able to get at least one more string quilt out of it - I'd be fine if there wasn't, but another one won't hurt.

OK, bedtime for me

What to work on next

 I finished the two gift quilts - and both have been delivered to a parent of the little girl recipient. I have the requested photo from one...
