I have been sharing so many lovely string quilts lately, I lost my self-control and just had to make some blocks myself.
Here are the nine 10.5" blocks I just finished. I think I have a few more blocks stashed away that were made by myself and others. They make such wonderful Veteran quilts. They burn through all those scraps I end up with too. If you have some RWB scraps you need to find a home for, feel free to make some 10.5" string blocks and we will use them for our donation quilts!
I hope to make more of these blocks this week.
*********************************************
It is now your turn to share what you are making with scraps. Here are the details for linking up:
- This linky party is for any scrappy project - It can be in-process or a finished piece.
- You can link up your blog post (not your homepage please) or Instagram photo from the past week that features your use of scraps.
- If you are linking to a blog post, I ask that you link back to my blog somewhere in your post. So if you are writing about scraps, just get into the habit of including a link as there will be a linky party available every week!
- If you are using Instagram, please use the hashtag #ohscrap.
- This is a party so remember to socialize and comment on the posts of others.
- Following my blog is not necessary but it sure would be great if you do!

These string blocks are beautiful with all their scrappiness, Cyndy! They'll make a gorgeous quilt. String blocks are the perfect activity for relaxation - just keep sewing! Have a great Sunday!
Beautiful finishes in the past posts here, Cynthia. Inspiring -I am intrigued why I also seem to have so many strings in my scrap bags.
Those RWB string blocks rock! I've been itching to play with strings too. . .my little squirrel keeps calling my attention to them; but, I'm working on some other projects. . . .first!!!!!
I love a string quilt project. I've got some other stuff to send so I"ll try to toss in a few RWB blocks as well.
I like your string blocks! I am holding myself back - I want to make another string quilt so badly! (But I do have a very good memory of the complete mess all over the sewing room last time I made one.)
