Hello Quilt Friends, from the foothills of the Sierra Nevada!
Where it's cool and sunny.
And AHIQ has a new challenge, Choose a Color Palette!
That was easy for me as these colors, Orange, Yellow and Blue, have been running in the back of my mind for a while. I'm never very far away from orange as you might know if you've looked at my past projects.
The fall leaves around here put on a gorgeous show and a page I saved from my 2021 color calendar has stayed in mind along with the colors in the Orange X Block quilt I finished fall 2021 for my dear granddaughter Ellie. So the choice was already waiting to be acknowledged.
However, I'm in no hurry as we're still in the process of settling/moving in. There's no room for anything big right here, right now. So I'm adding to the Four Patch Blocks I've been hand and machine piecing, thinking of orange, yellow and blue, and dreaming/planning for the next projects.
A quilt, large or small or patchwork fabric for a bag, large or small, maybe drawstring or with a zipper?
Here are some tutorials that were fun to watch that have me thinking....
Japanese Rice Bag Tips and Tricks with Jean Wells;
Growing a Quilt Design by Beth, My Sewing Room,
and that, Quilt Friends, is the news.
I'll be by to visit and see what colors you are considering.
We have a lot to be thankful for, don't we?
