I've been doing string quilts for about 5 years now and so far this is the biggest quilt yet. My youngest son recently bought a house and right away I knew he needed a bedspread. I had plenty of fabrics from various African styled quilts and I wanted to make a string quilt for him. He wanted it BIG as he doesn't want to contend with a bed skirt and all the "frilly stuff."
I think this quilt is big enough.
His birthday is tomorrow and my youngest turns 35! Hope he likes it!
