Commentary about works in progress, design & creativity
I didn’t plan on putting up a Design Wall Monday post, but somehow I just felt like it. This is a bigger view of my design wall with some added bonuses that I don’t normally show. Random fabric squares. I think I was looking for similar fabrics or to make some similar feeling four patches … Continue reading “Design Wall Monday – November 2018”
My design wall looks crazily turquoise and red this week. I didn’t realize how much I am in a turquoise and red mood lately. The Stepping Stones n.2 is part of that as well. Despite the color theme, not much is happening on the design wall. For the moment it is acting as storage. The … Continue reading “Design Wall Monday”
My small design wall is fairly empty this Monday, but stuff is happening there. Mostly donation stuff. On the bottom left are my new group of FOTY 2018 pieces. I posted about the most recent group on Saturday. The middle of the design wall shows my most recent Spiky 16 Patches. Below the Spiky 16 … Continue reading “Design Wall Monday”
I am still a little bit a loose ends with quilts. Not sure why, but there it is. That doesn’t mean I am not working. I am. I am working on bags, but I thought it would be a good idea to have something other than an empty design wall in my studio while I … Continue reading “FOTY 2017 on the Design Wall”
I have been writing about En Provence and the Triple Stars a lot. They are the main projects, though I slip in other sewing here and there. My design wall doesn’t have a lot on it at present, though I thought it would be interesting to show you how I work with a smaller design … Continue reading “Design Wall Monday”
I think it might have been last November that I did a design wall post. I am a little short of content, not having finished or really worked on anything worth showing recently. Some projects are actually worth showing, but not in a recognizable stage. I kind of feel like this whole year, so far, … Continue reading “Design Wall Monday”
We had Craft Night at SIL’s the other night. Her design wall was awash with BAMQG projects. One thing that is cool about this is that SIL never belonged to any guilds (that I remember her talking about) when she lived back East. The other thing is that she does more of the various challenges … Continue reading “BAMQG Design Wall”
I don’t regularly post my design wall, though I do occasionally. The last time was in July. I am posting it this week, because I was enamoured with the look of my design wall last week. As I said, I pressed and cut up many pieces of fabric over the weekend. Partway through my flurry … Continue reading “Design Wall Monday”
It has been almost a month since I did a Design Wall post. The wall seems like a storage facility for pieces and parts lately. I am putting patches, bits of fabric, parts of blocks and hunting / gathering pieces up to get them out of the way more than work on them. Space feels … Continue reading “Design Wall Monday – mid-July”
I don’t do this type of post every week, but felt like giving you an update this week. I also wonder if you haven’t seen this same Stepping Stones strewn design wall a million times before. I think the last update was in October. Flying Geese: I haven’t made anymore or received any in awhile. … Continue reading “Design Wall Monday”
I haven’t posted a Design Wall Monday for awhile, because there is no point in posting a boring design wall. I don’t think you should look at a boring design wall. Flying Geese – these are the most recent Flying Geese from my exchange with TFQ. 2. Stepping Stone block. I just put it up … Continue reading “Design Wall Monday – mid October”
The last post was in April. Not quite a month, but close. How’s this for a change? I completely revamped my design wall. Normally, I am fortunate enough to work with two design walls. I usually have a large design wall leaning against one wall, but I gave it to Friend Julie at the last … Continue reading “Design Wall Monday”
I am a little short of content, though more is in the works, so you get to see my design wall again. 1. Hot four patches. I still want to make a lot more of those and make a 4 patch quilt. I like what Bonnie Hunter has been doing with Four Patches lately. 2. … Continue reading “Design Wall Monday”
I haven’t done a post like this in a long time. A long time is about a month and a half. i wonder if it looks much different from my last post? You tell me. Hot four patches. I want to make some kind of four patch quilt out of hot colors. This is a … Continue reading “Design Wall Monday”
I think that my design wall looks exceptionally turquoise this week. There seems to be a sufficient amount of pink, too. It looks really different from the last time I posted, partially because I have been sewing. Though different is probably the wrong word; it looks more – more of everything. More octagons, more Stepping … Continue reading “Design Wall Monday”
