Choosing fabrics, cutting, wonkies again.....

It takes a long time to choose all of the fabrics for a colorwash kit.  As I am cutting I have one kit laid out in color groups so I can see which ones are still short and which have enough.  This is the next batch to cut.

Above are some of the fabrics that I have already cut and groups of 145 squares.  55 fabrics to go and I have 30 chosen.

I added 4 more rounds to Wonky 5.
This shot is for perspective of size.  The design wall is 7' tall and 8' wide and these are numbers 5 and 4 on the left and 1 on the right.

What luscious fabrics! The cutting takes a while, but the selection process takes almost as long. These kits will be a treat to work with as half the work is done already.

I love the wonky quilts. So much fun!

They are looking good! That cutting takes a long time! I cut some florals a week ago and it took all day. Part of the problem was that I was cutting up leftover pieces too, so they took longer to organize.

That's a lot of squares! And I love your wonkies. Are you using your studio cutter?

You sure have put in a lot of work for those of us that have ordered the kits. And I so appreciate your work that goes into each kits.

Your 'wonky' pieces remind me of 'Picasso's' art.
