I'm more than half way done with my string blocks. They are quite time consuming, so I only make a few at a time and then move on to something else.
I also worked a little on my crazy HSTs. Surprisingly, I'm not sick of them yet. I managed to trim all the blocks I made so far and pieced 4 smaller blocks to make bigger, 11" x 11" blocks. I am so winging it with this quilt. I'm being very random with colors - the only rule is not to place the same color right next to each other, everything else goes.
And, since I needed something small to work on just so I'd feel like I did accomplish something, I made this 2.5" patchwork. I had all my squares already cut out so this whole 16" x 16" square came together in no time. I think it's going to make a really fun pillow cover.
Well, that's my week of WIPs. How was yours?
