Playing with the design wall.....................


This is the view from my sewing chair while I'm watching TV last night.  I should have started this up a little higher because I have one more row to add on top or bottom.  I'll try to add one more row at the top today.  I actually have enough pieces left to add 2 rows so the other one would have to be pinned onto the wall at the bottom.



The largest sections are approximately 5" x 12" now.  The half sections are 5" x 6".  I can unpick the excess at the beginnings and endings of rows and use it to fill in the short rows.

Now I have to decide if I'll get this top sewn together or do the binding on the second quilt for another finish by the end of the month.

Or buckle down and get both done.

  7. WOW ❣️this is another creation to behold. So full of fantastic fabrics.

    And I haven’t heard “buckle down” for years. But remember using it back in the day. 🤭

  8. This one is just wonderful! And it has given me an idea for how to deal with the not-so-balanced shape of Dragon Fyre (thank you!).

  10. Once again you have triumphed with all the colour combinations! Just shows how fabric cut into simple strips can be magical, no need for detailed templates, curves and so on. I would imagine there are many of us looking at this thinking how much we would like to gather our scraps and work their own magic. I love it!

  11. Yes, I agree with Maureen, wonderful pairing of fabrics in this one! Did you work to a "rule" with your combos? or just what felt right?
