The new year is starting off with a bang.
I'm still working on finishing up things from
last year and since my goal this year is to sew up
strips and strings, I'm working on strips and strings.
I'm trying to whittle down my box of leftovers and
bits of blocks and quilt.
There are an assortment of squares made of strings and strips.
The next step is planning out what to make with them.
I took some figuring, but I have 2 good size
twin quilts planned and it should use up
some good bunches of strips.
The first plan is utilizing twelve and a half inch
cut blocks out of color family strips.
There are some red, purple and blue
in the scrap box.
So I decided to make full length strip sets
divided a vertical zinger.
I made fairly good progress on the
blue the first day of stitching.
Let's see how far I get with this plan.
The next evening really turned up the
strips. I found more blue already
pieced so I was able to string all
the columns together.
and the log cabin top is peaking thru!
A few colors are hanging out looking
for a spot to participate.
An old favorite was chosen and
here is the result!
All are waiting for a layer and quilting!
Happy new year and happy stitching !
