A string quilt by me

By my definition, "Strings" are the leftover bits of fabric that are too large to throw away, but too small to keep.  So I sort them into drawers by color, and every once in a while pull out a bunch, stitch the strings together to "Make" fabric, then cut them down to a consistent size.

 These are the blocks that were leftover from my most recent sewing fest.  Not enough of any one color way to make a quilt, so put them all together into rows.  It will keep someone warmer through the Portland police.
