String Challenge last entry and Design Wall Monday

I have been working on the  No Strings Attached Challenge introduced by Stephanie at Loft Creations.  It is ending soon and I have been working on my last entry into the Challenge pool.  It was been amazing to see what people have made with their stash strings!  I think I had like 13 or maybe 14 projects done.

Thanks Stephanie!

This one will be a donation quilt for the place my mom lives now, Lake Sherwood Retirement Village.  She has Alzheimers and when they have games and fun things they alway have some give aways.  I thought I would send some quilts their way!

I love the large rick rack, and the orange.  I even used up old pieces of binding that was leftover from two quilts.  And the strips are super muslin from Hobby Lobby which I really love the feel of that fabric, it is dense and handles whatever I put it with.

This used up very little of the large bag of scraps I still have so I need to make like 12 more!

Anyway it is both my Design Wall Monday and my No Strings Attached Challenge entry!

  3. Glen, I LOVE the giant rick rack on your challenge quilt. And the pieced strings you used every so often in this quilt really add interest. Isn't it amazing how much you can get from the scraps? When I piece crumb blocks, I swear the scrap multiply instead of decrease!!
