1- SBS #13- String Block: It's my first time using paper foundation. I really had fun with this one. Next time I'm going to make the sections thinner, but it's kind of cool that it's asymmetrical.
2- Diamond Chains Quilt: Well, it was supposed to be done yesterday, but luckily, Melinda was nice enough to extend the date. The former deadline scared me into action and I quilted it. I really felt like I wanted the quilting to be as scarce as possible and let the design shine through, so I outlined the star and did a lot of diagonal lines connecting the diamonds.

You'll notice the black is a bunch of Treble Clefs. I chose this fabric, because my Grad adviser recently had a little boy (I have a Masters in Music Education). It's my little way of personalizing the quilt.

Okay, number 1: can I say again how much I love your Diamond Chains quilt? Uber love! I had the same problem getting a good photo of the quilting, but I can see yours and I love how it turned out. Also, I was a music person as well! I was minoring in music until I changed colleges to get a speech pathology degree and the music went out the window! Things in common!
