The Iowa Quilt Museum has just opened an exhibit of string quilts that make my heart sing.
Since then, I found that the quilt was featured in the Jan/Feb 2010 edition of Quiltmaker magazine. But since I had already started, I just continued on. My blocks have wider strips than hers, but I'm OK with that.
Karen also offers her pattern on her website: http://karengriskaquilts.blogspot.com/2014/11/new-fandango-quilt-pattern.html
Recently I got the blocks out and decided to make more so that I could have a bigger quilt made. The blocks are fun to make. So non-precise! Love it. My main machine, my Bernina, is in the shop but I can easily make these with my 1937 Singer Featherweight.
Don't know exactly how big this will turn out to be. Someday I"ll just know that it's "done". And then I'll quit making blocks and proceed with making a quilt.
