The days have been hot and humid or overcast and I need some bright cheery fabrics. I used scraps from previous quilts. The only full width of fabric that I cut was for the background and one strip for pinwheels. Sadly I used most of my black and white fabrics and when I was in the fabric store for batting I didn't see any that were more white than black, they are gone. But there were lots of boring grays. I think gray would suck the life out of these brights. Did you guess I don't like gray? My next quilt with bright prints may have a plain white background. The bag of scraps is smaller but there is a new bag of scraps inside that bag with the leftovers, 1 1/2 inch squares, 2 inch squares, 3 3/4 inch triangles and 5 inch triangles and a note about 9 patches, 4 patches and pinwheels--my seed bag for the next quilt. Enjoying bright blue sky and cooler temps today. --Ann--

ReplyDeleteI just love your design and might have to bust out some scraps and make one like it. The pinwheels are perfect in the lime green.
