I have decided this will be my first quilted item for 2012. Something old combined with something new. The strips were sewn around June last year. My plan was to make pillow covers. But couldn’t decide on two large, four small or one large/two small.
So, rather than cut into it until I made up my mind, I just enjoyed folding it different ways and taking photos.
So now it has been rescued from the Round-To-It Pile. And guess what? It won’t be pillow covers after all!! It is going to be a quilt. I “think” I want to make Half Square Triangles. Half stripes. Half black and white. And since I have been accumulating black and white fabric for a year, I should have more than enough to get started.
And I think I will work in the new color for 2012. Tangerine. (Read all about it below.)
So… that’s what I am working on. What are you working on? Have you made your first 2012 crafty item yet?
