happy friday!

Thanks for all the love for my new string quilt! I’ve been making a few blocks each evening… and now I just need to decide how big I want to make it.

This pile is the result of trimming up my blocks –

They’re just too pretty to throw away, so for now I’ve been collecting all the scraps in a big zip lock bag. I’m going to have to come up with some project that uses really tiny scraps! (any ideas?)

And speaking of fabric, I’m still working on cleaning up my stash… I’m forever running out of room (maybe because I just keep buying fabric!), so I’ve listed a few additional pieces for sale in my shop.

(I had to make room for these… gingham and tulips – so spring-y!)

Also, if you’re interested, Amy has posted a little interview with me on her blog today. Head over here if you want to read it. Thanks Amy!

Hope you all have fun things planned for the weekend. I think I’ll be chained in front of the sewing machine (though that’s not a bad place to be!). I have a few quilts that need quilting!
