Before and After

I'm still working on the odds/ends from the guild, but now have all tops done, and was able to get one sandwiched and partly quilted. Since there are fifteen of them, it might be a while to do 'my' stuff, but I did take a break and made a few random blocks from scraps. One of them looked like this:

Boring. A library book on making modern improv quilts got into my head so I decided to slash up this boring block (about 16" square) and add some scraps leftover from various things but in colors that worked together. This is the "after" picture. It is 19.5 x 32 but not sure if the strip on the right side will be sewn in. Kind of like it though.

This sort of goofing around is my favorite way to quilt. Just make it up as I go. I even woke in the night and planned a quilt around it, so who knows what will happen. In any case, I've not yet run out of scraps!

Later...
