I need a name for this guy. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
I'm also working on Bonnie Hunter's Orca Bay mystery. Took me 10 hours to finish the 224 required QSTs in Clue #1 and now I'm working on Clue #2.
These 3 1/2" square string-pieced blocks are so adorable and they finish very quickly! I've finished 42 of the 72 required and will probably only spend about 4 hours total
Bonnie's idea to use telephone book pages is a good one and I have a slick trick to removing it after the block is sewn:
Give a gentle tug in opposite directions and the paper will split on the seams making removal really easy!

I love your husky!
Wow - he's gorgeous. How about Kind? thanks for the tip on depapering.
Beautiful Husky! How about Juno?
I passed on the last mystery because of the string blocks but these I might be able to enjoy!
My suggestion is: Fluke
I love husky quilt.
Thanks for the tip on the Mystery Quilt. Nope, have not started! Knew how long it would take to make the original blocks so I decided to wait until after the kids left for Thanksgiving. Better to spend the time with them than with my sewing machine!
Love the husky. Where would I find that pattern? My grandson needs this. Love the colors of your mystery!
Love your husky - weaving the background is such a fun technique but I had forgotten about it. Loved the tip for removing the pages from string blocks. I assume you used a smaller stitch length as well.
The name that popped into my mind was "Steady"...don't know why! Glad to see you are playing along with the mystery!
Your husky is very handsome. I wish I had known your trick for removing the paper from string blocks before I'd spent hours removing the paper from my blocks.
I'm going to have to try that trick as soon as I've got more paper to remove!
The husky is awesome. Those little pink strings just way too cute!!

I really love your pink string blocks. I also wish I'd known about your method of removing paper. How clever!
Sorry, no ideas for the dog's name (being a Certified Cat Person, naming dogs is a challenge!), but I wanted to thank you for stopping by my blog. Re: the cute squares, I find using the '2' setting for my stitches on my Husqvarna (rather than the default of 2.5), means that the stitching has already begun to cut away at the paper backing and removal is very easy. :-)
I really love the Husky! Very cool!!
I have seen several people making their string blocks with pink - I love it! Your husky looks fantastic - I like True Blue.
My colors are the Pink for secondary color same as you. The HGU are brown. The primary color will be blues, from light blue through the teal family. My daughter likes those 3 colors. I can't wait for the next clue!
Thanks for the paper tip! That is great. Love your colors.
love the dog hes awesome. Your pink strings are so cute. Looking forward to seeing the whole quilt.
Looking through your page here, you are aptly named, Rabid Quilter indeed.
Your pink blocks are so sweet. I have 2 little girls that wish I was doing something similar for them. Can't wait to see your next steps.
I'm using green too as my main color.
Thank you for visiting my page.
Love the tip and the block. I saw it too late for this step, but I keep reading that there will be more strings.
