Been a while...

I know it's been a while since I posted anything, but I have been sewing so here are a few of the things I've done.


Did a mini quilt swap with a sister guild. Why is it always the piece you love most is something you have to give away.


Played with some half-square triangles. Always wanted to do something like this and I'm very happy with it. I do a lot of improv so it was nice to get back to some more precision piecing

A few more recent finishes.

I don't quilt my own stuff often, but the smaller sizes I have been making are easy enough to do as I don't have a long arm for projects over 30" square.


Peaks and Valleys

Took stacks of 12" x 11.5" solids and cut a 60 degree triangle then grabbed and sewed. One of my favorites for sure.





Plus This

I have seen this pattern of pluses done many times and just thought I should do one. All from scraps. Don't know if I will do another, but it was fun to do at least once.




Bamboo

This was done for a minimalist challenge. They were the end cuts of another block and I saw them laying together and just put this together in about 10 minutes. It's nice when everything falls in place.




This piece was the result of a class I took. Learned how to work with triangles and what "low volume" really means. Another favorite I will be hanging on to.
