An interesting String project completed

I wanted to do something different. (Who woulda thought it!!) So I looked at some of the string diamonds I was creating, and saw pears. Imagine that.

So I started what I thought was going to be placemats, but turned out to be a small table runner because now I have something even better for my string diamonds! Not a word yet, you will see when it gets there!

So, back to the pears. The Pears use up the red and black border left over from my Black and White Birthday Block Quilt from the Cyberguild Ladies in 2009. And I even used more leftover of the black and red by cutting strips and making the binding. How creative to use a scrap that has been sitting in my way for a year now! LOL.
And look at the quilting motif. That comes from 365 Days of Free Motion Quilting. Thanks Leah! it was fun fun fun.

Hope you like The Pears.

  1. I really like your pears! They look great on the red. I'm thinking of making a guitar out of my strings. Thanks for sharing.
