Strings and Blobs

So I have another quilt that needs to be bound. This one is my usual string quilt, which is my all-time favorite quilt to make:  all the fun of color play, and mindless sewing.  I just finished cutting off the backing and batting, and the quilt is hanging out on my dining room table.  I'll make the binding later on and then sew and hand-sew.

And, here's the latest lace blob picture.

And the lace blob on top of the string quilt.

And that's it.  Whirligig proceeds slowly, so not much point in taking a picture of an added block.  But stay tuned, at some point I'll photograph something here.

Finished and started

I actually finished a quilt.  I used William Morris reproduction fabrics (and, incidentally saw the original Strawberry Thief at the British Museum).

And started:  a new lace shawl, shown here it total lace blob moment.  Trust me, it will unblob when washed and blocked.
