Many of our old family quilts are some string variation but they often add curved piecing or purchase some solid to add continuity. <br />Currently there's no design wall here. It's just on the floor by my sewing machine. Barely enough room for a baby quilt. These were a bit easier because I "pre-pulled" fabrics that had similar values. <br />I get on kicks of types of books but often alternate between non-fiction and mystery.

I love string quilts. You are right...the blue does add interest. I like how you have arranged the blocks. I web most of my quilts even the really big ones. I usually sew blocks together randomly but kind of look at the blocks as a whole as I sew and kind of "design" the quilt as I go instead of using a design wall. (Weird, I know). Book sounds good. I've been stuck mostly in historical fiction mode although every once in awhile I do like to branch out into mystery mode.
