I am enjoying this quilt and have started another. I have a nice hunk of yellow that I can use for the background and I guess I could sew a bunch of greens strings for the border. I'm on a roll.

String X Completed
I was going to go to Joann's to find some border fabric when I got an idea. Why bother with buying some border fabric when all I need to do is make some more string blocks. I pulled out some teal fabrics that I have had for more years than I care to mention and started sewing. It was pretty quick and I really like the results.

That looks wonderful with the teal scraps in the border!
I think it looks much better with the teal strings than it would with a single border. I love this quilt!
The colors in this one are really lovely, Barbara. I think it is awesome!
I agree with Vicki that the scrap border looks great and probably better than a single fabric would have.
Love the teal border...ya did good! Are you ready for Fay???, though looks like it might bite us...never know though with these things.
Oh, yeah. That's the ticket. I really like it. Great idea.
