Projects

I made this stained glass table top while teaching this class at retreat in October.  I added a solid black border and quilted it one evening after work.  I love the crazy texture.

I used some of my coveted Jane Sassman fabric for the back.


Last weekend I finished the log cabin flimsy.  I had my doubts about it before borders.  The borders seem to make it come alive and now I like it.

This top is being quilted today. I stopped to eat lunch and get my post ready.

Log cabin experiment

These blocks www assembled from the string bags. Mostly blacks and neutrals in all different widths. Here is the progression of assembling this flimsy. The last picture will show where I am currently. I intend to add a border of some sort. I see that the top and bottom can be matched up.


 Now the side columns need to be matched up.


Now I think that the blocks can be joined together.
The result, different and glad I got this out of my mind. I will add a border and quilt it up for a love quilt.

Almost black and white

I have been wanting to experiment with strings and log Cain blocks. You see these two bags of strings and chunks have been harassing me. I've put them to use and the bags HAVE gone down in size. I hope to finish this into a flimsy today. I am off from work. Yay! Maestro the Manx kitty is photo bombing. Enjoy.

Log Cabin Top

Yesterday I took a group of log cabin blocks and assembled this top. There are still plenty more.
