water colors

last june, there was  class on string piecing...using up scraps and not to worry about bringing any, the strings would be provided...just another reason for me to hoard my scraps....haha, i also came home with the leftovers...

i had a different design for the quilt; i think i was going to sash the 12" blocks and have some 9" and 6" for the boarder...but this...is complete chaos...

rainbows have been my style lately....red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple...

my ol man helped me figure out the design for this quilt. sort of reminds me of a watercolor set. i'm going to try and quilt a paint brush on the rainbow strip and stipple the rest.

the only thing i don't like about this quilt is having to take off the paper from the blocks...maybe next time i'll use old fabric or dryer sheets...something i can just leave on

*sigh* another ufo out of the way...
