I woke up this morning with the strongest urge to add a post to my sadly forsaken blog. But what's a girl to blog about? I scanned the sewing room, looked through pictures for an idea and came up with nothing brilliant nor newsworthy. Oh, well!
Having nothing to blog about and not to waste a perfectly beautiful morning, I grabbed a stack of larger scraps and hung them on the design wall to audition size and color. Well, okay, these seem to be working beautifully together so I pressed, then cut off selvedges and rehung them before sewing, shifting a few around as I made progress.
And, sew it goes, a completed quilt top measures 46" x 60" finished before noon.
Finally, here's all that remains of those pulled fabrics. Man, was that cutting it close! The idea for free range quilt top #1 started with Lotta Jansdotter's "Follie".....the gray stripe leaves. Make-do creativity starts with an open mind about fabrics that should or should not be included.
Hope to see you again soon.
