I think I have figured out I am going to finally begin helping with the Heartstring blocks and get my other goals accomplished as well. I am going to try and do the Heartstrings blocks as leaders and enders. I recently viewed the quilts that Bonnie Hunter has made using this method. It's amazing. So - this weekend I am going to cut my foundations and get some strings cut. Hopefully this will be a productive plan.
It's a rainy, rainy day here in Hubert. My Wed. morning bike ride had to be cancelled. I was so looking forward to it. I did put the time to good use, quilted a couple of hours on a customer quilt and got 20 minutes in on the elliptical trainer. Now to get ready to head over to Kendall's to babysit. I should be able to get a few stitches done on my applique while she naps.

I'll be curious how the string blocks work as leaders/enders. I tend to make mine in groups of about 6-10. I find I do better to focus on piecing a single quilt at a time (well maybe two)
Just checking out the HeartStrings blogring for the first time!!
Good luck with your new plan to do the HS blocks as leaders/enders. I find I have to work on one block at a time, can't even chain piece several as some other members do!!
