Oh horrors. Have I made a "modern quilt"? This quilt was going to be a Bonnie Hunter "Celtic Solstice" mystery quilt. I was faithfully cutting out my fabrics, and managed to keep up with most of the sewing for a good chunk of the time. By the time the reveal of the final quilt was completed, I was through with this project and really didn't want to bother with making a honking huge green and orange quilt. "But I've already cut up so much fabric and pieced so much of it! Now what?" Hmm. If I take these bits and lay them out this way, then add white background to make the narrow strips bigger, then alternate them... Hey that worked! Poof! It's a charity quilt! Long and skinny, but it will keep someone warm. Extra warm as I used leftover wool batting. |
