Something New

I am starting something new -


These fabrics are from a Joanns' mini-jelly roll I was given as a gift last year, and as my list of family gift quilts-to-make is beginning to grow again, I thought I'd put it to use.



They wouldn't necessarily be colours I'd choose for myself but I think the soft teal shades help to lift the browns, and there are a couple of the orange prints that I like a lot.

Anyway, I decided to cut into them to test drive some block measurements I drafted recently for a very simple quilt.


Nothing original about this, I just did some maths.  Fingers crossed it'll all come together as it should and become a gift for the very special person I have in mind for it.

More soon, I hope.
