Rainbow String - finished


One of my favorite finishes of 2020 - Rainbow Strings.  This quilt is so bright and cheerful with the string blocks each done in a different color palette.  I may just keep this one for myself, at least for now.

Rainbow Strings is a free pattern from Mary Quilts.  Mary generously shares her many patterns and design ideas on her blog and website for free.  One of the things I love about her patterns is that the instructions are always easy to follow, and they don't usually contain small pieces or complicated blocks.  She makes a lot of donation quilts, so quick and easy is ideal.  Thank you Mary for the inspiration you so generously share!

Mary’s patterns are wonderful: I’ve used several of her patterns for Quilts of Valor. Rainbow Strings is a beauty- the border fabric pulls it all together.

Great finish! The colors are so fun and that backing really finishes it off in style.

You picked a great fabric for the border and the black sashing makes each block pop. A wonderfully fun and colorful finish. You should definitely enjoy it for as long as you like.

That is a beautiful quilt, Sara! I love the happy string blocks, and it looks like you found the perfect border fabric, too.

Gorgeous quilt! The border fabric you chose really sets off the string blocks and makes them shine. Kaffe Fassett?
