String Along Month Three

Time for our String Along Link up! I always look forward to seeing what other quilters have been up to. I am linking up with Lori of Humble Quilts who is hosting the String Along, and all the other Stringers HERE .

 I am including my Pineapple Crazy blocks in my string sewing. These little guys take some time, but  I enjoy making them! I finished 12 of these 5 1/2" (unfinished) blocks  this month. That gives me a total of 36 blocks. I think I may start sewing them together so I don't have to sew all 224 blocks  at the same time.
 






I completed 8 String Basket blocks and 10 more string blocks.







All my String Basket blocks, I know it doesn't look like much, bot I did concentrate more on the Pineapple Crazy blocks this month.



I am thinking of settings for the Basket blocks. This is the original Gwen Marston/ Freddy Moran quilt I got my idea from. Their blocks finish at 14" and mine will finish at 7 1/2".




I am playing around with some ideas for settings.
















We had a couple of visitors the other day.







Happy Quilting!
