One of the things I did this week was to get out the RWB scraps and make a few string blocks. I am making them 10.5" square.
I also got out all the blocks I had made previously along with the ones that have been donated. Coincidentally, I received more in the mail Friday. Now I think I have more than enough for a string quilt and possibly enough to use as a border on another quilt I am working on. You will just have to wait to see what that will look like!
String blocks are probably my favorite block to make. What is yours?

Your blocks look great, Cynthia! You have such a great assortment of patriotic fabric scraps!
Wait and see??? I'm am. . .although not so patiently! I've a couple projects to finish and then I think it is time to play with strings as my string container is stuffed!!!!
Your string blocks look great. I'm not a fan of making string blocks, though I love the quilts they make. I don't really have a favorite block, they are all fun to make.
I really like that zig zag setting of those fabulous string blocks!
