Lots of little leftovers from two recent quilting projects. First are my small citrus sections from the Project Quilting challenge. I'm thinking of making another small wall hanging with it. Right now these layouts measure about 14" across and 25" long. I think 1, 3 and 6 are my favorites. A couple of those layouts remind me of the Very Hungry Caterpillar.
The other leftovers are from the rick-rack quilt. I was left with a pile of ¾-inch strips from trimming down the fabric rejects to make the squares I used in the backing. The colors went together so nice on the backing, I decided not to throw the scrap away, but sew it all together.
I'm not sure what I'll make with the pieces, but I'm sure it will be pretty. I'll have to throw it on my wall and see what springs to mind.

ReplyDeleteI like the dresdens very much and your favorites are the best of the bunch. Have you thought of putting random colored diagonal strips in the background. Just a thought?
