A few months ago, I picked out a project bag from our Valley MQG Philanthropy table. It's a quilt top that needs to be pieced. This is what was in the bag.
There were some scrap fabric, a 7.5" finished block and there was an instruction saying: " No pattern, create your own. Min size 36" x 36", larger if you can." I like the part that says 'create your own'. It sounds like a challenge to me.
I set out to cut some more pieces. There's enough yellow fabric to cut out 9 more center blocks. So I cut out 10 purple 6" squares for center of the blocks. I will make 10 yellow blocks with purple borders and 10 purple blocks with yellow borders. This is what I have on my design wall so far.
The final layout will be decided when all the blocks are done. So far so good, I think. :-))
Thanks for visiting and have a wonderful week.

I like the start to your own creation - that fabric would certainly catch my eye too. I just clicked on your link to the Valley MQG and saw that you had been a guest speaker there - congratulations! We feel lucky that you shared with us at To Do Tuesday! :)
ReplyDeleteI like it!! it will be a fun and happy quilt!!!
ReplyDeleteNice start on the quilt. It's always nice to get a philanthropy quilt made and passed on. (Although I must admit I'd rather use my own fabric as I have way too much of it!) Enjoy the sewing.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun challenge. Your are off to a great start.
ReplyDeleteCute fabrics, and this new project is going to be lovely. Have fun designing the top!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing, and linking up ;)
Those are fun fabrics to work with for a "create your own" challenge. Looks like it's going to be a great finish!
ReplyDeleteWhat a clever design! Love the fabrics. This will make a pretty charity quilt. Thanks for sharing on Wednesday Wait Loss.
