Started a quilt today. Emptied a plastic bag filled with scraps from Laura Israel’s every giving collection of fabric. And, Mary Ann Pettway (Gee’s Bend) style, I just started sewing the pieces together that were the same size. Came up with this:
Then….
This is as far as I got for today…
I inherited a large box of quilting pieces when my grandmother died. I would guess many of them are 40-50 years old or older. I don’t know what to do with them and wondered if you’d like them. I follow your blog regularly as well as Jon’s and love both of your work very much. I’m happy to ship them to you. Just let me know. Thanks, Maria.
Oh my Janet, that’s hard to resist. I”d love them and love to pay for the shipping too. Thanks for thinking of me.
I just started zentangling, and now I look at your quilt squares a whole new way! So glad you’ve been able to get back into your studio to work. Caregiving is not easy! Hugs to you! Debbie
Definition please Debbie, great word….
Fantastic colors ! I’m hooked….
It looks as good as it probably felt to do it. Welcome back to the studio!
Love it Already!!
I love that style of sewing pieces together and have not mastered how to do it. Someday….I see a HEART of GOLD theme there.
and doesn’t it feel good to be just making something x
Beautiful, Maria! So glad to see the creative fires burning again, especially as this means that Jon is feeling better also! Have fun!
It does mean that Jon is getting better Brooke, Good all around!
