Today, I finished my first string quilt block. It was fun! The Emerald Coast Modern Quilt Guild (I am a member) is making these for a raffle. We just joined the national Modern Quilt Guild and we are using the money for our annual dues. First, I decided what fabrics to use and then I cut them into 1.5″ strips.

I started in the middle of the 12 inch square with a white strip. Then I added all the other strips. 

Finally, I squared it up to 12 inches making sure the white strip was down the middle of the square. And, here it is!!

Stay tuned for the next project…here is a hint.
