Here is a quilt project that I finished up last week. I wanted to do a quilt for my in-laws for Christmas (they are so hard to buy for!). I had participated in a string block swap on the Quilting message board on HGTV and receieved all these great 6″ blocks.

All I had to do was add four 12″ blocks for the center and the sashing and the boarder and I was done. This is my second string block quilt I’ve done and I’ve liked how they both turned out. If you are thinking of trying one – I strongly recommend you do!
This B&W one I did for a raffle at my children’s school. It raised over $150 so that was good. It was also a lap size but this time all the blocks were made by me. It was the first B&W quilt I ever did and the first piano key border I’ve ever done.
