More Blue String Blocks

My first 12 string blocks for my Roll Roll Cotton Boll 2 blue version.  They aren't the greatest string blocks, I blame the undersized paper, but they will be ok I think.  I don't know what to work on now, I'm in RRCB mode, and I need to work on my bow ties and 32 patches (not to mention my Paintbox nbr. 2, Iowa ((Carolina)) Christmas, Amy's 2010 BOM, etc.), but the baby was born this morning at 9:12 central time 8 lbs 6 oz., 20 3/4 inches long.  Tucker Alan Carson.   Hmm, I could probably finish the baby quilt in a day or two, have my August finish, and then vacillate some more.   I'm really good at vacillating, I might even say I'm downright wishy washy.

Tucker is a wonderful name! Love your string blocks.

I don't know that we vacillate so much as we get older as lose the need to stress and meet deadlines. I have days when I just don't want to do any of the things that I could be doing and so I don't do them!

Love the name Tucker - and your string blocks are gorgeous - very watery or beachy looking

Thank you for looking at my new blog . . . it means a great deal that you commented. I LOVE love love this. The colors are so restful. This style of block is on my list! I'm thinking I will have to use blues too. I've finished my 36 patches... hoping to post pics soon. Laura of Ruby Grey Studio
