I promised myself that I would sew something other than string blocks for the Covered In Love String Fling this week. It was a lot harder to resist than I thought it would be. I made 35 string blocks. The Rainbow Scrap Challenge at So Scrappy used light blue for January, but I had to sneak some medium blue into the 7 blue string blocks. I also made a Dresden Plate block with 3.5 inch blades. I didn't fasten it to a fabric base. I am waiting until I have all of the blocks finished so I can decide where each color will be placed.
These are the rest of the string blocks I made this week.
I won some lovely scraps from Erica at Kitchen Table Quilting. Many of them were 2 inch strips so I immediately used them in my string blocks.
I really enjoyed making the string blocks and will probably continue making them throughout February. Hopefully, my scrap pile will be a few inches lower by the time March arrives.
