Child's Quilt from Panel and Strings: Finish


Child's Quilt from Panel and Strings: Finish

This is one of my favorite quilts I've ever made. Yup, I'm saying that about a quilt made from scraps, and a cut up panel. I can't believe it, but it's true. It's just fun, and I got to add so many tidbits of old favorite fabrics in the string piecing too. It's for my granddaughter, but it's staying here. I don't often do that, but I'm a little attached to it. Maybe because it took a lot of creative and mental energy to piece, but this one is special.

Analyzing a String Block



Chevron Block: September 3


Are you following the Kathryn Kerr 365 Challenge? It's absolutely free so follow the link to learn more or sign up. My good friend, Penny, is doing this fabulous sampler so I signed up for email posts each day, too. I rarely make a block, but I can cheer her on as she sews them. Also, there is something fun about seeing a new block each day, and of course, I love to read the construction diagrams. Don't you? Curious quilters want to know this stuff!
