Years later I took the sheet out, unfolded it, and much to my dismay, the pinned pieces had come loose. They fell in all directions when I opened up the folded sheet.
So much time had passed that I couldn't remember how I originally wanted the blocks arranged. And since I had changed the pattern, there was no going back to the book to get some clues.''
On closer inspection, I also sadly noticed that my piecing skills on that project had much to be desired. Ugh!
At least I put all the pieces in a BOX before shoving them back into the closet.
Yesterday I took said box out of the closet, and things did 't look so bad.
There was still that mumble of blocks and pieces, but I think I can rework most of the inaccurate piecing. I still love all the colors. I am not sure how I originally intended to connect everything, but now that does not seem so important. It's okay to be clueless sometimes.
While I was ratting around in that box, I did figure out one thing--where I had put my autumn leaf batiks. I knew they were somewhere.
Another fun quilt to watch you put together this summer.
ReplyDeleteThose batiks are really pretty. I can't wait to follow along on the progress of this one.
ReplyDeleteHave a great Monday!
I do love the colors in this...a LOT! Sometimes clueless can lead to better things.
