The pattern

I am still working on That quilt

but I thought I would start writing up the pattern

(before I forget the maths)

 

I am enjoying the drawing.

Any one interested in the pattern?

Alterations

 

Should I leave this as it is

or

 

change the little pieces at the bottom

to complete the circle?

In one piece

 
My latest quilt is all one piece.
Still not sure if I like it....
Hmmm, borders?

Maths



I do love it when my maths works out, eventually.

Not so sure

I have been working on a new quilt.
That's lot of sewing before I see a result but I'm not so sure about how it is going to look.
I was playing on Instagram later.....
the colours are lot like my freshly dug homegrown spuds.

New

Time to start something new...

Here's my fabric selection
not counting a rummage through the scraps box.
I am starting with the basic 9-patch.
2 1/2" squares.
You are welcome to join me but it will get more complicated.
I have sewn triangle on all four sides.
6 1/2" x 3 3/4" rectangle cut diagonally to give half a 60 degree triangle.
I am working this out as I go along
from a picture on the Internet.
Hmmmm
hope it works.

A bit of stitching

I spent a lovely sojourn last week at Tafta Geelong.

Here is my little collection of samples of limo cuts

and various other techniques

so I thought I would stitch a little thingy,

what should I call it,

to put them in.

 

I do like a bit of stitching,

so I used a bit of my vintage kimono silks.
