This one is for the guild's charity bee. Ladies in the group stitched the string blocks and packed with a backing fabric and outer border fabric. Then they get passed on to others to set and quilt. I felt like these blocks needed a little more unity so opted to add a border fabric from my stash and used the dark green as inner sashing and binding. I think it turned out nice, strings always are fun to play with. Quilted with a panto design called Faye Feathers with a light gray thread and Hobbs 80/20 batting.

I love string-pieced quilts. Your choice of sashing is a really good unifier. Quilting looks great.
