A friend called last year’s temperature project the “you’ve lost your mind” quilt. I’m still working on hand-stitching it (I’m almost up to June, whoohoo!), so this year’s quilt will be different. Something machine stitched, using a simple pattern, that I can sit down and get caught up on over a weekend if when I fall behind.
First fabric pull
It’s taken me weeks to make up my mind,
Reject! Braid pattern was a finalist until I tried sewing it. Icky.
with multiple flip-flops on almost every decision,
Background fabric choices
but as of tonight,
the FABRIC IS CUT and decisions are DONE. (I think . . .)
Cut, labeled and ready to sew
I’m winging the pattern based on this picture I found on Instagram.
The background will be black (the top right pic above), which I think makes it look more modern and makes the bright colors really pop.
Thanks to the Stripology ruler I bought last year, all 19 fabrics were cut in a couple of hours, something that would have taken me several days the old way. And with all that done, tomorrow we sew!
