Binding Blitz!!!!

This is TOP secret...you know, I made a string X quilt before...this one!!   Haha, not really too big a secret, but I don't know if I have showed this before on the blog.   I added flippy corners to the blocks, and it made this design.  Hand quilted through every string!!
And a blue and red border...again!  The latest one in last post had blue and red too, just reversed position.


BINDING BLITZ!!!!


Please add your link below!!!  A random drawing will be held in five days for the winner of the fabric/quilt kit for July.  Can't wait to see your finishes...thank you so much for participating!!!

I love the alternate pattern the white makes on your quilt!

It's interesting to see how additions can cmpletely change the appearance of a quilt pattern. I would not have guessed that the quilt is a String-X!

Thanks for hosting the binding blitz, Julie. This is my first real finish of the year.

Another wonderful finish.

I've got two QOV that need binding hand tacked, but life has managed to get in the way.

I've been sewing and saving my binding for cooler weather. :)

You always make the most beautiful scrappy quilts. I love this rendition, too.

Loris said...

These string quilts are wonderful! Great way to use up the scraps and they look so fun too! I got my plaid quilt finished and bound :-) but I am stuck with posting it to my blog because there is some glitch not letting me add photos:-( I'm on the blogger help forum hoping someone can help or get the problem fixed on their end.
July was a good month for stitching here. I actually started and completed another big quilt too. The binding was finished on August 1st so I'm saving that for next month's blitz =^.^=

I love string quilts. The flippy corners is a unique touch.
