Strings and hand work

 This little wall hanging is made out of pieces and parts in the applique bucket.  I may add a butterfly.
 I am still working on this limey green string quilt!  The sun is so beautiful today, shining in, although it is quite cool outside.
And lastly, a tiny embroidery birdie coaster...




Have a great day, everyone!!

The cornerstones and sashing at so much dimension to your green quilt. It's fun to look at.

Such happy projects! And what butterfly could resist such a cheerful bunch of flowers? :)

I think a butterfly would be a nice addition.
I love how your string quilt looks, love how piecing can make such beautiful designs.
The birdie is a fun little piece, love doing those in between other projects.

I love the fabrics in the green string quilt. It is so bright and cheery. Of course the other two blocks are wonderful also.

As always, your projects are very inspiring! You should write a book about all the different ways one can use string blocks! This one is fabulous!

Love your string quilt..I like scrappy quilts. May I make a suggestion...that you add more black into the top. The one long piece of black really draws the eye and if you added more it wouldn't catch your eye so much. Just my thoughts.

julieQ said...

Thank you, Deanna, that long black piece is really a piece of green velvet! LOL!!
