Sewing with some sanity

Over the past few months, I have been sewing some strips on to rectangles to make simple blocks.  I had a pretty pile of fabrics that I wanted to use up.  Also, I was working on curvy seams and often needed to do some simple sewing to either warm up or settle down.

I used this pattern http://www.maryquilts.com/new-forest-bricks/ from one of my favorite "go to" sites.  Mollie's use of stash has been an inspiration to me (I am sure my husband appreciates her philosophy too!)

Lots of 2" x 6.5" blue pieces sewn to 3.5" x 6.5" bricks.


I'll bind with the same blue.  I'm sure if I dig in to the closet, I can find a few pieces to use for a backing.



Now to start another project.  Next on my list is Round & Round.  I plan to use sea glass batiks.  I can't wait to start cutting.
