Quilting: March Craftsy BOM

March Craftsy BOM

March String Block

March String Block

Learn It

This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
Craftsy Block of the Month 2012 »

Instructions

I decided to paper piece instead of using the background fabric for the foundation. I cut a 1 1/2" wide by 11" piece of my background to go down the middle of my foundation paper after marking off the placement. From there instructions are the same.

I felt this really cut down on the bulk I would have had on the seams using this method.

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

For: Home

Style: Traditional, Whimsical


Materials

I used the blues and reds from the fabric line I'm using for this Craftsy BOM. I felt this took a little more skill as I used paper for my foundation instead of fabric.
