Just a Little Bit of Color

These are a few of the 'blocks'

that I made in my first day of class

with Rayna Gillman.

The workshop is titled

'Create Your Own Free Form Quilts',

and I'm certainly doing that!

I think this may be another wall-hanging for 

our new granddaughter, Maggie.

I was afraid I wouldn't have enough commercial fabrics

in my stash to fill the bill,

as these colors are totally out of my comfort zone,

but I think I'm going to be ok.

Here's a bit of my scrap pile:

We will begin putting our 'blocks' together

tomorrow, or at least discussing

our blocks and various methods of joining them.

I'm having a great time.

There's something very therapeutic about 

sewing loads of strips together,

not measuring, not using a ruler as a cutting edge,

just cutting strips any width

and joining them to an ever-growing family.

.....and of course, it's always great fun

to be with Rayna.

If you've never had that pleasure,

I strongly suggest it!

thanks for dropping by!

peace to you!
