Sewing

With DH having been away I have managed to get into the sewing room.  After a tidy up I had a play!

Having recently got Rayna Gillman's new book, Create your own free-form quilts I had fun playing with all the scraps left over from our entry into the Kalgoorlie Art Prize

Here is the result

Need to add a border and then quilt it.  Just love Rayna's idea of sewing strips and blocks when you want to sew but have nothing in mind.  Then come back to them later.

Love your quilt Annie, I have Rayna's book too - have had a little play - will do more at some stage - I really like her approach.
Thanks for your comment - I'll add you to the draw.

This is a lovely quilt Annie - it's great to be able to create something from nothing, without rules.

Annie- what fun! I love the exuberance of the colors and your free-form design - glad you are enjoying getting rid of all those strips so creatively. Thank you for your note - it made my day and I love seeing the picture!
