Work In Progress 05-05-2025

Happy Cinco De Mayo

I'm still tweeting away on the Adventure In Time quilt.  I wanted to share my process in making this quilt with you.  And to show you how it evolved from this to the current stage on my design wall today.

I knew I wanted to make third round piece, so I made this round piece of the same size as the other two.  



The half round one was a mistake so I didn't use it.  I put the round one on the wall and I thought it need to be different size.  So I made this.




I do like it better.  Then I put it on the design wall and this is what it looks like today.




I'm not done, but I like what I have so far.

Working with denim materials is limited in some way.  I'm thankful for my sister-in-law for giving me her old jean pants in many different colors but I limited myself to a few.  I’m using different parts of the pants such as the edge of the pocket and even the ends of the legs.  Can you find them?

Thanks for visiting and have a great time making and creating.

Margo

  2. This just gets more fun each time I see it. I remember when your husband called it "Adventure in Time". The denim is marvelous, love the uniqueness of it in your designs.

  3. Great start -- or possibly close to finish. No, I can't find the pocket... I'm sure it's there but it isn't obvious to me.

  4. I love this new circle, it looks like a window ;) Love the use of the original seams too, as a part of the design. You know how to let the fabric speak for itself! Thank you for sharing your design wall, and linking up.

Thanks for visiting my blog and taking the time to comment. I enjoy reading each and every one and will respond with an email. If you don't get an email response, it's probably because you're a "no reply blogger" and I have no way to contact you! If you don't hear from me, check back at the original blog post for my reply.
