More progress has happened on the BAMQG Improv Round Robin. I worked on Cindy’s and then handed it off to Michelle. Jen posted in the guild forum that she worked on mine.<\/p>\n

\"Cindy's<\/a>
Cindy’s IRR Before<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The first thing I did with Cindy’s was look through all of the fabric she provided with the piece sitting next to me.<\/p>\n

I thought it had a lot going on. I decided to use the turquoise solid (shown at left) as the background with my signature fabric to continue the Flying Geese motif already used a couple of times by other contributors. With a vague plan in place, I got busy cutting and piecing.<\/p>\n

The piece I made was a little too short so I added a pink square. There was a\u00a0 pink solid in the group of fabrics, so I used that.<\/p>\n

I really did, mostly, cut without a ruler, but my piece looks very precise compared to the rest of the sections. I know that my arm injury is affecting my cutting. Mostly I have to rotary cut much slower and, apparently that equals more precision.<\/p>\n

I like my part. It balances the turquoise on the left side and the Flying Geese do bring repetition and continuity to the piece.<\/p>\n

This is also a good exercise in what I can do in 20 minutes. I am not counting cutting, because of the injury, but sewing and designing. I think looking at the fabrics first was a good thing to do. I think it helped jumpstart my process.<\/p>\n

\"My<\/a>
My IRR after Jen’s work<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Jen posted about my piece<\/a>. Michelle had worked on it and made it into a L<\/a>. I was a little concerned about that, but only a little. I knew my Club Doodle (the name of our group) pals would come through for me. Jen did with flying colors.<\/p>\n

It is still keeping that turquoise background feel, which I am happy about. There are more Flying Geese, which I am also happy about.<\/p>\n

I am also glad that the Queen Street fabric is finally getting its day in court.<\/p>\n

In terms of administration, I have worked on Jen’s<\/a>, Michelle’s<\/a>, and now Cindy’s. I feel like I have worked on more of them, but, perhaps, that is because I also worked on mine. I need to work on Claire’s, Diana’s and Rhonda’s.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
