As I sewed my Rainbow Neighborhood houses, I made crumb blocks as Leaders and Enders. I promised Cathy K that I would make at least one purple string block! Well, as long as there is a mess in the sewing room and the string bags are handy, I might as well make more than just one!
Seven crumb blocks that are trimmed to 6 1/2” square. And 6 string blocks that are trimmed to 7 1/2” square because that’s the size all the rest I make are and the phone book pages are cut to that size.
That plus a 5th and secret 6th house block are what happened this week. My purple basket is a bit lighter, but not empty! Sigh!
I’m linking up with Angela and Scrap Happy Saturday .
You're an over-achiever this week, Judy, lol! Love your crumbs and strings in purple. And 6 houses - wow! Something really inspired you!
