Projects in Process

January 17, 2016 3 Comments

All those little squares that I started last week, finished!
And sewn together.
First, all squares sewn into horizontal bands.

Then those bands joined into the whole.
Next up? Sew it into a coat.
I have to tell you, this was so much fun.
Lots going on, but when I’m in my studio, it’s just me and these beautiful shapes.
Each one seems to appear out of nowhere. It’s magic!

And why stop there?
New colors for my next project, a long vest.

    I can’t wait to see that finished vest. I love the pop of orange and green. Stunning.

    Can’t wait to see the garments. I just finished free piecing a strip like you do for the back of a quilt. I’ve got some kimono silk, I really should get to cutting and piecing it for a garment!
