Back to the Love of Fiber


I did a little playing with a Jennifer Jangles fabric I fell in love with.  I found the wonky stripes from a Dr.  Seuss fabric line to go with it.  I put it on graph paper and came up with this block.  Now knowing how many blocks are out there I am sure there is one like this but I can't seem to find it.


I know this was rather juvenile but it worked for me lol.



I think I will make a pillow out of it and perhaps sell it on esty later. 


The tulip was drawn then colored with crayons.  Then I ironed out the wax.  I am working on free motion quilting so this was my first attempt on something other than scraps.  It is just okay but not something I would by any means sell. 

I have been practicing the free motion quilting and a few days ago while I was doing stippling my machine started to make a noticeable scraping noise so it is in the shop.  So I must get back to other crafts for a bit.  It feels odd not to have my machine because it has become a part of me.  On the other hand I have lots of things to keep me busy in the mean time!
