It's probably no surprise that I went right back to playing with improv techniques I've enjoyed these last weeks. I managed to make the bottom block without any ruler, per Leanne's request, but I got going and forgot as I was trimming the spikes in the top block. I swear, I put that ruler away as soon as I caught myself, ha! Though I was pulling from the scrap bin for the spikes, trying to use quite a few colors, I found I ended up with a loosely-defined palette that is unique but inviting. May have to explore that further one of these days...
I do like the spikes! Remembering not to use a ruler would be hard for me, too.
ReplyDeleteThis kind of sewing is my favorite! Putting together scrappy pieces at random and just stitching is so satisfying!
ReplyDeleteThere are just a few places i need to have a ruler. Love your improv!
ReplyDeleteBee Sewcial sounds like a fun challenge. And Leanne/shecanquilt has some beautiful work, knitting and quilting.
ReplyDeleteYour blocks are a great start Debbie.
Fabulous inspiration...love the dazzling color, line and shapes!
ReplyDeleteLove the colorful spikes, they just look happy.
ReplyDeletegreat blocks!
ReplyDeleteWe've got a "Do it yourself" round robin at our guild - watching all your amazing improv pieces has me inspired to do my RR in this manner - in solids. SO out of my box, but I think it will be fun.
ReplyDeleteWell, it makes me happy just to look at those.
ReplyDeleteVery inspiring blocks Debbie ! I particularly love the blue and orange grid !
ReplyDeleteYour work always inspires me. I need to get serious about improv!
