I wanted to play with fabric and just sew, not measuring or
calculating, just sew. My favourite
mindless/therapeutic go to block is the Mile a Minute block (some refer to
these as crumb). First I took a meander over
to Soscrappy to see what colour they were working with this month for the
Rainbow Scrape Challenge, I thought I might as well sew along. Turquoise it was, so I pulled out all my turquoise
scraps and began to joyfully sew. I
ended up with these 14 eight and a half inch blocks.
Now I have just a small bag of turquoise scraps left. These blocks will be saved to go into a larger
project. I have a few rainbow scrap
quilt pictures saved on Pinterest, so I will look there once I get more blocks
in other colours. I’ll be happily
quilting through the rainbow!
Shine your soul with the same egoless humility as the rainbow and no matter where you go in this world or the next, love will find you, attend you, and bless you. ~
Oh wow, your mindless sewing is beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteYour lovely TEAL blocks are giving me the itch to do some mindless sewing. Alas, there are currently too many HAVE TO's to do!! :o((
ReplyDeleteI really like mile a minute too. your colors are pretty
ReplyDeleteLove the way you used your colors this month. (not that I don't usually love the way you use colors!) Good contrast! They will make a beautiful quilt
ReplyDeleteLovely blocks! I agree with you that crumb block sewing is joyful. I try to always have at least one or two projects going with them. So relaxing.
