Right now this flimsy measures 42" X 49", a nice sized quilt.
This yellow has never photographed right. It's a soft yellow color but it isn't as washed out as it always shows in the pictures. Maybe after it's quilted it will look a little darker.
Do you recognize this yellow? The yellow is left from my Nearly Insane quilt. I always buy plenty of fabric when I make a long term quilt. I didn't know how much I'd need so I bought way more than I needed.
Anyway, the strings all are gone, at least until I sew some more!

It looks great. Good ideal use them up so they don't hang around. It's always better to get too much than run out.
I love this little string quilt gretchen... looks bigger in the photos than your size says too! Nice having leftover fabric from a longterm project to be your neutral on another :D Kathi
What a wonderful scraps/leftovers quilt! :-)
So pretty and colorful . . . you do such lovely work :)
Great way to use scraps! Looks good, I like the setting! Frustrating when the camera doesn't pick up the correct colors!
Beautifully use of scraps! It's so hard photographing certain colors, but we keep trying! Kudos to you for not letting this one sit for years!
It's got to feel good to have those strings all used up and into something useful, and I bet you have more room now too!
Love how you added rows of squares to the top and bottom to make it the right size. The pieced back is perfect for it. Beautiful finish.
what a beautiful string quilt.
This quilt is lovely and I'm sure some parent will love it for their baby. Thank you for linking up to the Peacock Party.
A great use of leftover fabric. Thanks for linking up with Thank Goodness It's Finished Friday.
