The swap is winding to an end, and even though I'm waiting on 3 sets of blocks from participants, I have been playing. :-) I tried a lot of different arrangements, laying the blocks I've received out on the living room floor and switching them this way and that way, and I finally decided to try something a bit different. This is what I came up with~ it's partially sewn together, just waiting for the remaining blocks, but I can now pick it up off the floor! I was afraid to move it until I could get some of it together. LOL :-) I think I'm going to like it! ;-) Although I've not seen string blocks used in this way, I'm sure it has probably been done before, it seems most everything has already been done. ;-)
**Once again it has been tipped sideways by blogger, sorry about that! :-/ I think it has something to do with how I resize photo's... You can click on it for a bigger view.
Next I'll go back to working on cars....
Until next time, happy stitchin'!
