It's time for the after-project clean up: putting away the thread, sorting the leftover fabric, then the after-project projects. I'm still working on the crumb hexies - there's enough to create another 30-40 of those. There's a lot more strings to continue my curvy string blocks. My selvedge bag was overflowing and then some. Shiplapped was my last selvedge quilt. I had picked a new selvedge block pattern (even made my own template) but only recently bought the black to use in the center. So I have spent the last few days diligently putting a dent in my pile of selvedges. Or at least trying to. The pile on the floor looks as big as it did a week ago. But I have 15 blocks started.
I am very pleased with my design wall! I threw up some scrap batting and started sticking blocks to it. I need to sort through my scraps of batting at some point and organize this better (and eventually take down the two quilts hanging behind the batting). But for a quick-and-dirty test, this is great. I really like how the selvedge blocks are looking (on the left) and some of the curvy blocks in a column on the right.
they are all modern and exciting. Great work!!!
