I thought it might grow larger, but as I extended the red background, when it grew to this size, I decided it was "done."
I had some leftovers squares and rectangles that will likely become a messenger-style bag.
I haven't been quilting much, as I pep are to jump into some new contract work. I haven't yet made any of the blocks for my Mod-Mod quilts–the July update was published yesterday on the Block Lotto. I plan to make the spokes blocks I need for these quilts during this month's Friday Night Sew-In. Some of them will be red– this month's Rainbow Scraps Challenge color.
There's been a bit more red progress going on around here. I've made a couple more red Briar Patch blocks for the scrappy version of that quilt. I'm joining Lee's party for WIP Wednesday.

Love this! And I agree, it is done.
Stunning! Eye catching! Perfect!
That silly strings quilt is beautiful! (And I'm not usually a huge fan of red, but that is just the perfect color for the string blocks!)
Such nice work - love the black and white print with it. I wonder - when you are finished with these highly satuarated colors what you will find appealing next. More colorful fabic? Or pastels? Beiges and tone on tones?
Just love what you did with silly strings. Looks so wonderful!
Your tomato red quilt with strings is wonderful!
It looks like some bricks popped out of the wall exposing silly strings! Nice idea!
I love all your red things! I can't wait till I get back to working on quilting things.....now that I will live.
Eye popping! Love the silly string play and what you ended up with!
Love, love the tomato quilt. It looks like so much fun and is a wonderful balance.
The silly strings quilt top is really cool
Yummy reds. Love your strings quilt, you stopped just in time. And the spikey blocks are wonderful.
Hugs
I love the last two blocks. Also the strings are great looking.
Those strings are great -- they look "done" to me too, I'm sure the extras will find a good home someday.
Is that a navy blue behind the strings, it looks great with that tomato red. I love it!
So pretty! love the variety of reds in your projects. Hope you schedule a little needle time each day once you are head deep in the new contract.
Wow, love the quilt top and the Briar Patches, very nice.
You do have a big red stash. Looks good! Especially like the red and black together - very dramatic!
It's so important to listen to the quilt when its says, "I'm done." You did and it looks wonderful.
Love your red quilt. I agree. That's enough.
Wow, that silly string project looks great. :) Almost tempts to me try something similar!
