I picked up this jelly roll from Fabric Freedom (Aunt Grace, Circle of Friends, SOOOO pretty! It reminds me of summer dresses from childhood) and pulled out some white to go with it.
Did I want to do nine patch blocks?
Or scatter the patterned squares randomly amongst the white?
I started stitching each strip to white, and then had a brain wave. I cut 8" off each pair, then stitched the remainder together. At one end I added the patterned to the white to make an 8" strip of patterned / white /patterned which I cut off, then I added the white to the other end (making white / patterned / white) so i made enough for two nine patches and left enough for 6 or 7 white / patterned pairs. (Makes sense to me anyway!)
Yes Mum, I know I'm supposed to do Hilary's textures first, but I needed some therapy! I've had to stop with the circle of friends because I ran out of white fabric, so I did this one for Hilary: woven strips.
I think it's just a few more to go, so I think log cabin (maybe uneven log cabin? and maybe ticker tape (raw edge applique)
I'm also doing some liberated sizteen patch for Block Lotto, so I'll show those when they are done.
