Even the cat is tired of all my scraps...

I have a box on the top of my cabinet to collect all my fabric trimmings. Seems a shame to waste them, and I figured someday I'd dive in and do a string quilt.

I admit it was getting a little overloaded, but I didn't think it was piled high enough to warrant a citation from the in-house fabric police.  When I came home the other day, the box was on its side, and the strings were everywhere.

I took it as a sign that "someday" had arrived..



Now I just can't decide if this is the start of something really cool or something incredibly hideous. Only time -- and a dozen more blocks -- will tell!

Looks like a masterpiece in the works to me!

I think really cool is the answer.

Love it, and what a great leaders and enders project it could be too.

Looks fun, so far! Like your slim dark diagonals and the rectangular shape of the block.
The start of a new project is like that, isn't it. Like walking out on thin ice...
