I called it Tiny Strings because of those triangles which began as bits of string quilt fabric left after cutting shapes for a bed-size quilt. They each measure 7/8 inch and contain 2-to-4 fabrics. This quilt began when I came across a small ziplock containing a bunch of these sweet triangles that, I guess, I was unable to toss.
This photo, taken just after I began quilting it, shows some of the tiny strings and gives a little feeling of the scale.
I took a few other detail photos while I quilted it. This quilt was made before Double Dare and you can see that the doodle-y style quilting in that quilt started here.
I'm happy to be able to share this secret project and am joining these link parties:

This little quilt is so wonderful. Sometimes it is just good to work small!
Great quilt and I love how you've quilted it. THe border reminds of those zap pow comic books xx
Oh Sophie that is just too sweet and little!!
wow awesome work, so so tiny!!!
Wonderful little quilt!
I can't believe how tiny that is! Each piece, I mean. That's incredible to me. Your project looks wonderful, and your partner HAS to love it!
Miniatures are such fun--and add to that the fact that the tiny triangle is itself pieced. Gorgeous! Lovely quilting too.
I love the scrappy HST. And, I didn't realize how small your quilt was until I saw the photo with the dime on it--that really put things into perspective. Amazing!
Wonderful - thank you for linking up to TGIFF!
Love the star blocks
What a lovely quilt. I really love all things with it, the piecing, the colours, the quilting, everything. Thank you for great inspiration!
