True Random and Quilts currently in progress
Here's a truly Random scrap quilt made from 2 1/2 by 4 1/2" pieces and 4 1/2" squares
pink plaid backing - tied with pink
For some reason, someone gave me 2 Supermario panels, and one Wonder Woman panel.
By just adding some 3 1/2" borders, they were large enough to make a small child's quilt.
I decided that the Mario quilts would be all masculine - no pinks, pastels, or florals.
I also found some navy solid fabric. That turned into pinwheels of navy/brights. I did the binding on that one yesterday.
I am still cutting navy and brights for the second.
Wonder Woman may be the same - dark/bright pinwheels, but this time including more "girly" fabrics - depends wht I find in my scraps.
I also had a big bunch of super bright orange pieces ( I don't like orange) cut to 2 1/2 by 6 1/2" - that have become lightning stripe 6 1/2"squares. I just turned around, and a piece of green fireworks print fabric jumped out at me and demanded to be added to the orange. It tones down the neon effect without making it dull.
So I have 3 new back-to-front kid's quilts and one Oh-My-Gosh-Orange quilt underway.
Not to mention parts for Old Town, and over 500 pieces already cut for Bonnie Hunter's Moonstone.
And I have Celtic Solstice on the quilt frame, and Indigo Way with its backing waiting in line.
I really need to get busy!
