string blocks!

I mentioned that I am in another bee right? Yes, I love bees! I'm not the promptest bee member but I really enjoy the collaborative work! This is my month and I decided that I wanted to have some string blocks made!

August for Sarah

blocks I made for my first bee

I already had a bunch of fabric cut and decided that these strips would work really well.

String block fabrics

Since I wanted to ease the workload on everyone's part I thought it would be fun to make BIG blocks instead of a bunch of tiny ones. So I asked for 12" blocks.

My favorite string block tutorial is from Film in the Fridge. Makes it so easy.
