The piece I showed yesterday (on left) is my inspiration for this Journal Quilt # 11. I rounded up some more of the skinny strips and made 'fabric' with them.
It may remind you of my 'second favorite' quilt on my right sidebar.
I made sure I won't continue with this madness of using teeny strips when I have so much yardage to use. I sent all of the rest of the strips to a friend in California.
Well this is kind of a favorite and it's neat to see how you sew the edges. I don't know how to sew like that so I swear off any sort of auxiliary sewing. My limited skills. :)
LOL -you sent the strips away :) these look very good though and what a good use of tiny scraps - talk about getting your moneys worth out of your fabric. Karen http://karensquilting.com/blog/
I get caught up so far into micro piecing, that I finally had to donate most of my scraps to a very deserving friend who will take them to heights I can only imagine ;-)
I had to smile at your comment of sending the remainder of your skinny strips to a friend in California. I bet she will smile when she gets them. Lucky her. :)
That's not madness, it's beautiful! lucky friend!
ReplyDeleteI agree with CharlotteP... the block is beautiful!

ReplyDeleteMy favorite of your journal pages so far. I wonder do you have a favorite or is it the one you are currently working on?
