~ All About My Friday Night Sew-In ~

So it looks like everyone enjoy their Friday Night Sew-In !! I know I sure did. I had the dishes done and my PJ's on ,radio was on my favorite station !! Hey ! I heard there was over 145 people doing the Friday Night Sew In !!
I wanted to share with y'all what I did last night .
This is the String Blocks I made . I managed to get 20 of them done . Pretty please with that number. Its a fast block to make but of course I had prepared the foundation earlier that afternoon so I had that out the way . I had two containers full of scraps . Some just small pieces and some with long strips(strings).
This is what a String Block looks like . I put a black string in the middle of all of them

So now you can see how the black strip makes a square when you put 4 blocks together . I want to try this with other colors .......


So much fun making something from my stash and not having to go out and buy anything !! I will be making more of these block for sure . Last night I was looking at the two plastic containers of scraps and was wondering to myself, 'how many quilts I could make from all of these pieces.' Ha ha!! Would be fun to try and find out ............
