String Quilt–Psychedelic

 

Sorry for my absence, I have been a little preoccupied and obsessively wanted to finish off making the blocks for my new quilt.  All 45 blocks are now completed and all I need to do  is sew it all together (which I plan on doing this weekend)

Browsing all the different blogs online I came across a beautiful String Quilt, aptly named Kaleidoscope by Film in the Fridge and also a great tutorial on how to make the blocks.

DSC00710Talk about easy peasy! this quilt is a paper/foundation  pieced quilt and could not be any easier.  I had a lot of fun using up lots of different scraps that I had left over from other things I have made. 

 

DSC00711I asked my youngest son if he were to give this quilt a name what would he call it, and he said it was a little Psychedelic looking so that is the name of this quilt!

I am still working away like a little bee on my Union Jack Hexagon quilt and have now basted 70 hexies! only another 430+ to go! and if that wasn’t enough I also started making a new table runner and also bought a lovely little mini wall hanging pattern.  I get the feeling I am turning into one of those woman that has many WIPs.  So I guess without knowing it I just joined the club!
