I've realized over the years that part of why I enjoy quilting so much is it feels like a jigsaw puzzle. Sorting colors, finding the right pieces, solving a problem. And when you are done, you don't have to take it apart and put it away in the closet. I also love mazes.
Looking at the stack of precuts I've been trying to use up, I noticed how many of them were white or beige. Not fun colors for an I spy. What could I do? Then it hit me, a MAZE! So I grabbed some graph paper and set to work, laying out a maze that minimized the black spaces while still being a legitimate maze (a few dead ends, etc). I added a narrow multi-color sashing to emphasis the boundary of the puzzle. I love how it turned out. I may take this one to work with me.
