This week, I had to spend a lot of time putting together kits for longarm quilters. It is a slow process because it usually means I have to prepare a backing too. But I made sure I found some time to advance my scrap quilt project.
I was able to get all the rows sewn on my scrappy HSTs quilt. Now I just need to press all the seams before I can sew the rows together. I am really happy with how this is turning out and am very motivated to finish it.
Maybe I will have a completed quilt top to share next week!

It's beautiful Cynthia!
That is turning out to be so pretty! I love the designs that can be made with HSTs, and to have them be made of scraps is even better. Looks like the perfect project to play with whenever you want a little time off from the Many Hands blocks. Have a great Sunday, Cyndy!
Love the setting for those string HSTs. Fingers crossed you find time to stitch it all together this week.
I like it very much too. Happy to hear you had some free time to do your own sewing. Enjoy! ;^)
I'd be motivated to finish this top too! It is a WOW!!! I'm glad you were able to take some time to work on your own project!
It is a very striking quilt- clean and sharp and dynamic!
Ditto what everyone else said. Terrific quilt. And, it's string quilting? Even better.
It looks great, Cynthia! And I feel for you with the kit prep. Preparing quilt backings is boring enough when it's for your own quilt, but when you're making backings for other people it's drudgery!
Looks great! I'm glad you are still getting time for fun sewing, too.
It's always nice when you can move your project along while moving the bigger project along too. Love the strings.
Hi Cynthia, your scrappy HSTs quilt looks great. Love those fabrics!
That's one of my favorite patterns for scrap quilts. Even better in a rainbow of colors!
That's going to be a beautiful quilt!
