I joined the Improv Round Robin at the last BAMQG meeting. I was really busy last week and didn’t get my stuff together until the morning of the meeting. I forgot the crucial thing: my starter piece. DUH! Fortunately everyone is really nice and I wasn’t the only one. I took Jen’s piece to work on and Michelle and I met near my house and we exchanged starters.<\/p>\n

After the meeting last Saturday, I came home and worked on Jen’s piece.<\/p>\n

I thought there was no possible way she could have made her piece in 20 minutes (more on that later) until I saw that some of her piece looks<\/em> like piecing, but is really part of\u00a0the fabric. So that was her trick. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

I added the bottom, which I curved on one end to give someone else the opportunity to do some curved piecing. They may just cut it off or do an angle, which is OK, too.<\/p>\n

One of the things about this project is that we each have to have a signature fabric that we add to all of the pieces. I had to use a Philip Jacobs print! It is the green and purple fabric on the right hand side. We are assured that everything will go together just fine.<\/p>\n

I added some more piecing at the curve, but cut it off. You can see what I did in the bottom photos.<\/p>\n

You can see the kind of wonky piecing, which is what inspired me to cut off the end. I added the left side as well.<\/p>\n

While I was trying to decide what to do, I pieced some strips of Jen’s fabric together. I ended up just putting them in the bin without using them. I kind of like the thought of adding something that someone can springboard off of.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
