Early Strings, Strings Everywhere. . .

. . . hanging over a bulletin board,

waiting on the sewing machine,

and nestled into two baskets.

And there are more where those came from.  I just haven't pulled them out yet.  Who knows what these strings will become!

Pieced Brain
I was thinking about strings last week, trying to decide whether to start a project with them now or not.  Then on Saturday, Denise Russell of Pieced Brain invited me to participate in her Strip-easy Quilt Challenge.  I think I might.  I have enough strips that I should be able to make something from them, don't you think?

I'm linking to
Needle and Thread Thursday at My Quilt Infatuation and
I Quilt Thursday @ Pretty Bobbins.  Thank you, Kelly and Gemma.

Thanks for stopping by!

  2. Looks like "an Adagio for strings" to me by the composer Barber, LOL!

    1. Well, it would be hard to make something as beautiful as Barber's Adagio -- but I'll try. Thanks for visiting.

  3. Wow, Nancy, where did they all come from?! They're going to become something beautiful, I'm sure :)

    1. Hi, Glinda --

      Nearly all of them are from other quilts and projects I've made but there are a few long strips that came from a recycling coop a few years ago. I'm feeling inundated, but then I thought everyone had just as many strings!
