Creating Modern Impressionist Quilts, Preserving memories, and Helping you make "WOW" quilts

Welcome to String and Story where quilts capture moments and take on a life of their own. Whether you are looking for the intersection of form and function in quilting, a tshirt quilt as a one of a kind gift, or inspiration to help you enjoy and capture your own bits of delight, String and Story is exactly the right place for you.

Nearly there! :: I'm halfway thru my crazy quilting on the center Birds, and I haven't quite given up hope that this quilt will be done before Monday's #machinequiltingbloghop post! 💙#modernbirdsintheair

Twinsies :: My chair pillow and #perfectfitquilt WIP are all kinds of @gingiber matchy matchy today 😍

So it begins :: Apparently the licensed fabric aisle has become a dangerous place. A certain cutie two year old named Jem made quick work of convincing me that he and little brother Ian need new quilts. 😍🚂💙 (swipe to see how pleased Jem was!)
