SUNDAY PATCHWORK #1
I’m trying out a new weekly routine where I dedicate Sunday nights to sewing and to doing some improvisational patchwork or other type of patchwork. No pressure to make anything from these blocks, but just time to play around with colour, form and fabric. So far I’ve been using scraps for these blocks and it’s giving me so many ideas for colour palettes, possible larger quilts and some smaller projects I want to try out. I’m absolutely loving the magical things that are happening when I sew with no plan.

Oh these are pretty! I made a no-planning quilt using some of these grays and taupes that I bought at your place. http://www.flickr.com/photos/wadewoolley/sets/72157623818132487/with/4491317916/
Good Sunday ritual! I need to set aside some time for something like this..
These are wonderful. I’ll be in my fortress of solitude trying to imitate you, as soon as I can find a new belt for my old Singer.
the blocks look cool! some very nice colour combinations there 🙂
I’m not a big fan of patchwork but this type of patterns, abstract and crooked is wonderful! very beautiful!
I love the bright florals that pop up – beautiful palette!
they are fab and what a wonderful idea. You got me thinking now…;-)
Absolutely gorgeous. Makes me itch even more for some improvised logcabinning… which I’ve been wanting for a long time by myself! XD
