String Quilting

As I prepare to leave on a business trip tomorrow, I don't really want to start a new, or work on a "real" project, but I do want to spend some time at the sewing machine so I'm still looking at my scraps.

I've been looking at tutorials about string quilting lately so thought I'd give it a try tonight.

Here is a great tutorial by Missouri Star Quilt Company.  She combines String Piecing with Paper Piecing... don't sweat...it's easy.. and fun ...  and fast! 

Here are my four blocks.

Four Blocks... three different positions...

I think I'll make a couple more before I go to bed.
