okay, so here are the squares so far. they are taking a bit longer than planned as i had already sewed up a bunch of strips and have had to take them apart. now that i've had more sleep, i feel motivated to sew more and hopefully get a flimsy together some time this week and get this pile off my ironing space, which is minuscule. in the meantime, i'll keep quilting on the scrappy christmas hoping to get it finished before father time leaves us this year.
You are so right on with that deep plum color setting off all those riotous batiks. I love my historical muddy-toned Civil War prints but my heart also sings at bright gaudy batiks, too. Then there is my floral fixation...LOL!
ReplyDeleteI can see why you couldn't resist these colors. Like Vic, I love the dark and dirty reproduction prints, but the batiks speak to me in a different way--and I LOVE them!
