Comment by Dianne B/ Kelowna BC on February 28, 2013 at 1:29pm: Thanks Florence. It's really easy - each block has 4 partial blocks - shaped like a kite with sides to make the square. It's from Bonnie Hunter's book. The full block is huge - 15 inches. I haven't sewn the blocks together, want to wait till I'm done so I can make sure I scatter the fabric evenly.

Now I'll go find your quilt!

Comment by Florence on February 27, 2013 at 9:34am: Wow Dianne. that is something else. Lookds like something you really have to think about while doing it. Good job. Do you know how to get to show and tell? You post just like here. Go right above where to you type a comment where it says view all. Click it and it will take you to other things. Go into Show and Tell. Mine is on the second page. Let me know if you have a problem.

Comment by Dianne B/ Kelowna BC on February 27, 2013 at 9:20am: Hi Florence - which one is yours??

I don't know how to post to show and tell, so here's mine. It's still in progress. I was going through my stash when I found a bunch of "ugly florals" and I couldn't imagine I bought them!! So, I cut each fat quarter in half and gave them to a girlfriend - with a challenge to make anything but a piece of each must be included. Now I'm liking it, so may need to rename the challenge.

Comment by Florence on February 26, 2013 at 7:08am: Dianne, I have posted a pic in the show and tell.

Comment by Char on February 25, 2013 at 8:52pm: Thanks Dianne, I'll look forward to it.

Comment by Dianne B/ Kelowna BC on February 25, 2013 at 8:41pm: Florence - do you have a picture? I'd love to see it. I'll post a picture of my string quilt "in progress" tomorrow.

Comment by Char on February 25, 2013 at 5:33pm: Hi ladies, I'm so glad you joined!
I hope we can get this group going again. Strings are my favorite scraps!
Please post your projects, I'd love to see them and maybe we can get things going again!

Comment by Florence on February 25, 2013 at 5:05pm: Hi Dianne. I just joined last week. Hoping something would get going. I have made one small string quilt and am saving strips to make a bigger one. I hope the group becomes more active.
