On hold and ...

This is an experiment my quilting sister told me about using the very small pieces to make a piece of fabric. What do you think? It was fun and I can see where I could improve on it. I have no idea how I will use it. But doesn't it look like a mosaic? Sort-of? I'm not clever enough to make it actually look like a picture or anything specific, but it is a novel idea and it satisfies my urge to never throw out the small bits and pieces and to make something productive out of them.

I'm thinking about another quilt. Already! Likely this one above. I'm a little stymied on the striped one, so I am organizing my fabrics. Talk about time consuming. First they are all stored in the crate, in different boxes and tubs depending on when I routed them out of my too crowded kitchen/craft space. I found some, but not all, in my forrays to find. But I found enough to satisfy my need to gather together. I made an appalling discovery...I habitually added to my pile without preshrinking when I got them home. OH NO. I have many (I mean MANY) to shrink and press before I can procede into any kind of production. Well that is probably good as I do not want to have two projects going at the same time. I really want to finish the stripes before I begin the next quilt. And it is getting warm enough to spend time in the crate doing my mosaics...
