I love Art Gallery. I know many people don&#8217;t because of the tight weave, but I do. I saw a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stashfabrics.com\/p\/art-gallery-elements-fat-quarter-bundle-in-cool\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">bundle<\/a> I wanted. I tried to resist, I really did, but bought it in the end. The fabrics came on Thursday and I was a little disappointed to find that they were not as bright as they appeared on the website. It isn&#8217;t a problem as I need a few more fabrics and will add in some turquoises and some brighter blues.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_46388\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-46388\" style=\"width: 230px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20190613_163759_wm.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-46388\" src=\"https:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20190613_163759_wm-230x300.jpg\" alt=\"AGF Bundle in my workroom\" width=\"230\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20190613_163759_wm-230x300.jpg 230w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20190613_163759_wm-768x1000.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20190613_163759_wm-787x1024.jpg 787w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20190613_163759_wm-1200x1562.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 230px) 85vw, 230px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-46388\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">AGF Bundle in my workroom<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Since I needed to find a project, I looked through a big box of patterns I have ripped out of magazines. I found one that would work and that I liked. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.quiltingcompany.com\/store\/patterns\/bed-quilts\/a-maze-of-little-gems-digital-pattern\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">A Maze of Little Gems<\/a> (Yes, I will change the name!) is the pattern that I picked. Nancy McNally has it on her <a href=\"http:\/\/nancymcnallyquilts.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">website\/blog<\/a> as <a href=\"http:\/\/nancymcnallyquilts.com\/product\/playground-of-triangles\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Playground of Triangles<\/a>. N. B.: I am glad it isn&#8217;t going to get lost in the Quilting Company debacle. The pattern is fat quarter friendly and uses a lot of the HSTs, which will work well for the fabric I have. I added in a AGF solid in Ash as the background. Yes, I am still on the grey background kick.<\/p>\n<p>I have to finish <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/tag\/flying-geese-exchange\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Flying Around<\/a> before I start something else. I also have a number of small projects I want to work on or finish.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I haven&#8217;t started this yet, but I plan to.
