A string block flimsy

Tuesday was an "office day" in the morning.  I spent a lot of time cleaning off my cluttered desk, reorganizing a lot of paperwork and shredding more old work docs.  I didn't allow myself any sewing time until I had some of this done.  But the afternoon yielded plenty of sewing time and I can check off a couple of tasks. 


I'm on a roll - another quilt top is done and hanging in the closet waiting to be quilted. The blocks themselves were a Rainbow Scrap Challenge project mostly done last year, with a few final blocks made in 2025.  These string blocks were pieced on muslin and are 9" finished.  It is a good lap quilt size of 45 x 54. Or it would be a good kid size.  


Once I finished that quilt top it was time to work on this month's row for Saturday Sampler.  The pieces are cut, and block #1 (of 5) is started.

Good for you being disciplined and getting your desk work done. I need to do some house cleaning today, I might have to channel my inner Sara! Your string quilt is so pretty. Will you quilt that yourself?
