When Lynne posted about a Dead Simple Quiltalong, I knew I didn't want to do a big quilt but anything to help with colour has to be a good thing, yes?
Lynne gave us ideas of where we could find colour palettes to inspire our fabric choices. I pinned a few but chose this one to start looking thro my scraps..........
My "quilt" is only going to measure about 18" x 20" so might end up as a floor cushion or similar - I don't think Lynne will mind that I am not following the rules properly, she is a bit of a rulebreaker herself.
Out of interest, these wee squares were my first cut using my Accuquilt Go - more of that when I have had more practice.
I think I might do some machine embroidery on it.......but then maybe I won't.
I love the way the colours all look good together because they were inspired by a pleasing pic.
It's lovely, isn't it fun to play with how to arrange the colours - if you have any tricks to avoid them looking organized, please share!
ReplyDeletethose colours look great Sheila and a floor cushion would be a great idea
ReplyDeleteIt looks great - love the variety of colours and the random nature of the placing!
ReplyDeleteI love love love seeing the palette pic and then seeing the quilt - and I love that you are making something different and smaller - I'm going to be cutting mine out with my Baby Go if they ever arrive and will let you know how I get on with the charm square cutter too.
ReplyDeleteThe colours are so beautifully arranged - did you go random or arrange them?
ReplyDeleteOh what a lovely autumnal feel to this wee top! Gorgeous! Jxo
