Well, it has been a busy month, at least sewing wise. I've been spending lots of productive hours in my sewing room and having a marvelous time listening to favorite audio books. I realized today that I had nine quilts that I hadn't posted about yet so here is the update.
Last post, I had shown a quilt I called small donuts. This one I'm calling large donuts. As always, it's fun to group the novelties by color. I also used up some random triangle left overs.
These next two I thought I would try using strips of black and white. I always seem to use 2.5" strips in colors but the black and white have been sitting in the drawer. These were fast to do.
This whirly gig pattern is a repeat that I loved enough to keep. This one will be a donation.
I saw the inspiration for this pattern in a t-shirt quilt. The optical illusion created by the black and white was such fun I wanted to try it with novelties. I love how it came out and I'm sure I'll do another one eventually.
This black and white with rainbow is a repeat of one made during Covid. Still trying to use up some of those black and white novelties that seem to hang around forever.
This pattern called Wild Thing is a favorite. This is the 3rd time I've made it. The first one was for a young lady who loved purple (she is now an adult). The second I did in rainbow colors a few years ago and loved how it turned out, so thought I'd do it again. Lots of trimming on all those triangles though.
I had noted this pattern from Donna Jordan's website, called Mix and Match. I decided to use up a charm pack that I could never figure out what to do with. The colors aren't my favorites, but it is a very interesting pattern. It wouldn't work with novelties though, so not sure I'll do it again.
This pattern called Blooming Meadows was designed by Nancy Rink. I used up some bright flannels I had gotten on sale a few years ago, along with the yellow from my stash. This one will be in our guild auction in September.
Phew, well that's the quick update. Back to sewing!
