These are the blocks I made with all those 'noodles' I made from the gifted fabrics from the participants of the Stone Soup Challenge. They are all thinking 'soup', but my brain works another way. I saw the Stone that starts it all.
Of course my su-purr-visor thru every step was right there when it came time to lay them all out.
I made 36 blocks, but then I have this thing about length v.s. width whether it is a wall hanging or a quilt. So this is set 6 across and 5 down for a 30" x 35" size wallhanging. I will do something with the other blocks. Now I have to piece the back to get this sandwiched and quilted.
There are a lot of string QALs going on across several social media right now. A lot of patterns and great way to use up scraps.

Great idea. A different setting for strings. Love all the dimension created.
Your sashing really adds interest and dimension, like Debbie said.
Wow love how your project turned out.
Beautiful quilt! I love the setting of your blocks. Great idea. I will definitely have to try this setting on my string blocks. Thanks for the inspiration.
I love the dimension here, it really enhances the string blocks. I think you'll have a lot of folks playing with this idea! Me included.
What an attractive quilt. That black sashing with the white triangle makes the whole thing pop! I love it!
Very striking. I love it.
It's so cool! Did your guild provide the pattern or did you create it yourself? I love the 3 dimensional look.
A really great setting for your strings !!
What a great quilt. I love it. This might actually get me to try a string quilt. . .but I need to finish my crumb blocks first.
Thank you for sharing. . you did a wonderful job.
Wow! I LOVE this colorful, happy string block quilt idea! Lots of color going on.

Sharon, I just love everything about this! The black strips really sets it nicely, as does the sleepy black cat!
Very nice! I too have a thing about width vs length!
Absoutely stunning quilt. I love it!
Love your stones out of "uglies". So so cool.
This is great! I live rectangular string blocks.
Souper cool! Would love to see a tutorial for this. :)
I love it
That's an amazing design... visually striking! Great job!
Beautiful quilt, very striking how you have put them together.
What a beautiful quilt! I like how your corners form little butterflies (or bow ties?) across the quilt.
How cool. I'd never thought of using string blocks for a shadow box quilt.
