Friday update: design change, interrupted (RSC)




A wildflower medley at Van Patten Woods


 Barn Quilts was the topic at the Zoom quilt guild meeting on Wednesday. Suzi Parron has traveled across the country to document these bold outdoor art installations.  She says there are at least 16,000 barn quilts and the list keeps growing.

I made a significant design change on the wedding quilt that required  three evenings with the seam ripper.  I'll show you the details in the Weekly Update next Monday.

To keep my spirits from flagging I took a break and made and finished a quick project.  Here are the 16 framed four-patches in turquoise, the RSC August color.  

And here are two turquoise potholders for Joy's Table Scraps Challenge. 


Now, back to the seam ripper . . . 

Linking up with Finished or Not Friday   Can I Get a Whoop Whoop?  and  So Scrappy RSC Saturday

  2. Better to honor the instinct to change directions than resist and be sorry later.

  3. So sorry about the rendezvous with the ripper. On the upside the aqua blocks are lovely and you are far ahead of me in the RSC August race. Have a great weekend!

  6. Becoming good friends with Jack isn’t a great thing. Hopefully the ripping session is over and you’re back to forward progress.
