I've been wanting to make a dent into my stash of fabrics for some time now and decided to make a quilt from "Quilts Made Modern" by Weekes Rinkle. I started cutting it last weekend having decided to make one that involved simple straight rows of 12 different colours. Little did I know how much cutting and seaming this would include! I would have thought twice before starting and now, having started, 'm rather underwhelmed by it and not very motivated to continue...... What to do?
Strips of colour were cut and then pieced together in a series of steps before arriving at a quilt cver comprised of alternate coloured and plain strips.
I think its boring and I'm not really getting any pleasure from it - first time for a quilt. The colours are the problem as the creamy plain colour adds nothing to the overall feel of the quilt. Oh the horror of having to unpick the strips I've done already........................
Bye for now.
