I haven’t forgotten this. This is my original idea.

I put it up on the design wall and thought, what if I tilt it a bit?

Maybe add that other leftover bit?

Nope. But it does give me another idea for something down the road.

Maybe this bit should be more centered.

Or maybe I should grab my improv strips.

Nope, I don’t care for this either, but it lead me to another idea that I think will work.

And thus, this shows the importance of playing. I have several ideas I would not have come up with had I not done this.

Have a great day!

I left a bunch of of scraps here. They all got dumped together while I was trying to consolidate things. Today I decided to sort them out.

I have 2 inch squares.

1 1/2 inch squares.

And an assortment of half and quarter square triangles.

I need to decide on a design that I can use for my next leader/ender project.

Maybe I’ll just sew HSTs together while I think on it.

Have a great day!

Turns out, I only had 48 of these little HSTs. That’s okay. Time to figure out what to do with them.

I like this broken dishes setting.

But maybe I could turn them into blocks like this. I’m not buying anything and I don’t have many options for fabric to add.

Hmmmm….have to think some more.

Have a great day!

I used this little piece to practice some machine quilting ideas for a secret project. I washed it when I was done to see how it would look.

I needed a mug rug, so I cut it down and bound it.

It ended up just right. 😊

Here is the back.

Have a great day!

Mr. Wonderful and I moved Dora to a campsite about 45 minutes from our house.

It is lovely and quiet. We plan to stay there now and again until our house here is sold. The pups love it!

Meanwhile back in our Arizona neighborhood….,

File that under things I never thought I’d worry about!

There has been lots of work going on here at the house. I’m glad I didn’t go crazy with wallpaper. Taking it down is not fun.

These two came and joined me for morning coffee one day.

In other news….

Have a great weekend!

I’m still working on piecing my Two by Four top together.

But I couldn’t resist playing with the leftovers from that top! Seriously, the scraps from one quilt lead to the next just like sourdough starter!

I think I’d like to add some large borders to this and quilt with perle cotton. The black looks good, but I might see if I can find anything else around here.

And believe it or not, I have more leftovers!

It never ends.

Have a great day!

That’s what I’ve decided to call this one. I finished the checkerboard pieces and debated about using gray or black for the background.

The black won. I did get the pieces cut.

And they are all arranged and clipped into rows for piecing.Probably one at a time.

Have a great day!
