One is the wonky log cabin. I have promised my Mum a dress for her birthday, but she really needs to come and stay with me while I make it so I thought I would make a little wall hanging for her. I decided to have a go at a wonky log cabin and not think too much about the process. This is the result. I was really worried after I cut the block into quarters that I had made a big mistake and I should have left it as a wonky square, but now it is finished I am really happy with it and the best thing - so is my Mum.
I used scraps of some patterned fabrics and the solids (except the cream) are Kaffe Fasset and I love them. The colors are amazing. I can't believe it was the first the I have used them I will definitely he using them again soon.
Definitely like the cut up version better ! More movement! First of many I hope...a quilt perhaps?
ReplyDeleteVery free spirited!

ReplyDeleteLove those colors. Been thinking of doing something with the scraps I have and getting ideas.. this is good!
ReplyDeleteLooks fabulous. I'm going to follow your lead... "fearless" sewing - brilliant philosophy.
ReplyDeleteOh I love it! Yes, be fearless this year! It works so well I think. Love that your wardrobe is nearly all stuff you have made. My Mum was always like that when we were kids. One day I will do the same. (any minute now!)
ReplyDeleteGreat work. I love when Opps turns into a Ah!! Love your New outlook for the year. I would love to try some really modern quilts this year. Sandra
