Thinking ahead......................


I am thinking about making some more of the little still life projects with the 1.5" squares.  I'm wondering if I want to add some triangle squares to add a few angles instead of all square pixels.  It's never a loss to have pieces cut because they can easily make a different project if I don't want them in this project.  Those little stacks are 4 alike of about 12 different fabrics times 6 stacks.  That should give me a good variety to work from.  Do any of you use a program to pixelate a photo?  I did a search and there were so many sites I have never heard of and I was hesitant to open them.


Yesterday morning was spent going through the brown, rust, beige and green batiks and pulling some that I will be cutting this week (squares, triangles and rectangles).  It takes a long time to prep for a project. 

Mother's Day is cooler this year.  Yesterday was very windy so low 70s didn't feel that warm.

  2. Happy Mother's Day, Wanda! Spent the last 2 days measuring tops, backings and making sets to get on the longarm. I now have a chart with all quilts, measurements, and such. Of course, fabric everywhere also.

  5. Great idea to pursue a ‘pixel’ top. Much like a mosaic using fabric. I love the idea it will be so much relaxing fun for you. Wishing you a happy Mothers Day too.

  7. Happy Mother's Day, Wanda. I've never done a pixel project. It should be interesting.

  8. Stitch fiddle is a (mostly) free online pattern generator I've used for cross stitch and knitting. It has a pixel art option where you drop a photo and it pixelates it for you.
