\"Fabric<\/a>
Fabric of the Year 2018 Jan-mid March patches<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I finally had enough cut pieces to write a post on the Fabric of the Year 2018 piece. This year I chose a 2.5″ square so I could have a realistic chance of doing the Ellsworth Kelly style<\/a> layout. The size of the pieces from Fabric of the Year 2017<\/a> makes this layout realistically impossible. First of all, I don’t have a design wall large enough to accommodate such a large piece. Second, I would have to cut all the pieces down to a square and I want to work with the subway tile shape. Third, I don’t want to wrestle such a large quilt. FOTY 2017 will probably be a monster anyway and I don’t want to add to it. It seemed better to start afresh with an idea in mind.<\/p>\n

The 2.5″ shape also means I can get pieces out of small leftovers where needed. I am excited, though FOTY 2017 being undone still drags a bit. I am making progress on my list<\/a>, so I can’t complain too much.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
