Design Wall Monday

These are the string trees blocks that I started after seeing the design on Crazy Mom Quilts.  I was ready to finish the top and had everything ready to go, but I somehow came up short.  I think this may be the first time that I have ever sat down to assemble the top and be short some blocks.  I guess I better get started on making two more blocks.

String Trees

I love reading blogs, they are so full of inspiration! 

This week, I had planned on getting the quilting started on my tulips quilt but I found a blog that had so many beautiful projects.  I was reading through the posts over at Crazy Mom Quilts and loved the project in progress on the September 16th post.  I just knew I had to try that! 

Since I never work with solids, I went to JoAnn's to pick up a few colors.  It was very fortunate that the Kona solids were on sale this week.  I have all the panels made and hope to get the top together this weekend.  Now, I just need to figure out what fabric to use for the backing.
