Your free cut flowers are so fun looking! LOVE them! I tend to pile a stack of fabrics together for specific quilts and then keep them in the little tote while working through the project. It's always enjoyable to release the leftover fabrics back into the stash when a project is done or when/if I determine it's never happening.
Charming and whimsical! Congratulations on the finish!
Love your little flower piece. I "released" quite a bit of fabric last year and it felt so good. I had forgotten how lovely some of those fabrics were. I was also surprised at how modern my taste had been 5-10 years ago! My theory was those fabrics were too pretty to stay in a box. If (and when) I decide to make that particular quilt, perhaps it will be on my shelf, but I can also find something that would work, even if I have to buy more (gasp).
Julie es muy bonito tu edredón!!
Your free form project is wonderful. I think free form is the Most fun way to design and sew! It is so fun to finish a project and make a project basket empty!!!!
Love your little improv flower garden. Super cute. My granddaughter sings the sone from Frozen, "Let it Go". It could be talking about fabric and quilt ideas.
Your little bouquet is very pretty. The patriotic wall hanging is really pretty too; quite a nice gift! I have a friend who also cuts up all her leftover fabrics into little 2,4,5" squares, totally organized, but I just can't make myself do it. Consequently, I have several tubs of fabrics in all kinds of shapes and sizes so I can have the largest piece possible when needed! I really don't know which is worse. ---"Love"
Setting fabric free........now there's a new concept, it may NOT catch on! :-)
Now, aren't you clever!?! It's sweet, as is the wallhanging Lyn made you. I very seldom get into the cutting up and tidying up Fabric mood. I really should follow your lead. No wonder you make such gorgeous quilts!
Hello my friend I loved the quilt I made for you thank you for showing where it hangs.I never thought of setting my fabrics free
Great job on the vase and flowers........ Isn't it fun to let the Muse have her way at times?
Wonderful friend to have given you such a lovely quilt....... It will enjoy many years in your home.
Good idea to release fabric into stash for further creations.
Fun, yes; silly, no! It is very fresh and happy looking. Love it, Julie!
Lyn made you a wonderful patriotic piece!
I never did fully buy into the idea of cutting my stash into strips. I made a feeble attempt, but I just don't often work with strips, so I didn't see the point. : )
Your imagination and the free hand cutting worked well!
