Isn't that good enough to eat?  Today I'm loving these bright, scrappy string blocks, made for the Love circle of do. Good Stitches.  Why haven't I made a scrappy string quilt yet?  I've got the strings for it, that's certain.  Thinking that's my next string quilt (not my next quilt, mind you). 

Oh, and good thing I made an extra, cause one block had a fatal encounter with the rotary cutter.  Oops.  I'll send it to Jacey anyways, just in case she wants to put it on the quilt back or whatever.  I favor including the oddities whenever possible. 



This morning I wanted  a quick, mindless sew.  Foundation piecing always does the trick.  Using the paper as the guide makes it easy to select long-enough strips without measuring.  These are 8.5" square unfinished blocks, easily cut from printer paper.  You add the strips one at a time, sewing right through the paper with a short stitch length.  The needle perforates the paper so that it can be removed when the quilt top is assembled and before backing/quilting.  For more string block tips, see Jacey's post. 

Hmm... what's next?
