Having scraps from the last quilt
led to this string quilt.
The piecing is complete…the hand quilting
will take place later on in the year.
down snuggling quilt
on the sofa.
Perhaps it would work as a quilt
wrapped around your legs
while sitting.
The size is 58 inches down and 43 1/2 across.
Most of the fabric has
a valentine theme – not all – but used
some others that were in the same color
(shades of red) with a small pattern.
I have another idea as what
to do with it…
how does using it as a table cloth
next February.
White dishes with red napkins would
make for a pretty setting.
Then maybe a white pitcher
with red tulips for the center piece.
Most of you readers know what a string
quilt means…but those of you who
do not – just let me know.

Very pretty!
Love it! Such a great use for those leftover scraps. I love working with strings. I think it would look great used as a talbecloth.

Such a pretty quilt Amelia, and I love your idea for using it as a table runner. Isn't it satisfying to be able to use up lots of scraps like that?

Beautiful. I love the tablecloth idea.
Oh, sweetheart Amelia, I have NO clue as to what a string quilt is. I DO know, however, that this one is beautiful. :)))
It would look AWESOME as a table cover....
Come see me...I've missed you.

How big does a snuggling quilt need to be?
