Decluttering My Brain

I might be making a mess in my sewing room with new projects started everywhere, but I think I'm decluttering my brain. Some of these ideas have been rattling around my head for months...it feels liberating to get them made into quilting swatches...for lack of a better name. The actual quilts will follow later...if the ideas are quilt worthy. Besides it's nice to have ideas, ready to go, during the times, my head is just plain empty...there are plenty of those days too.

I'm working on a QAYG Log Cabin type quilt.

I start with a center and just keep adding QAYG type borders.

Here I am, just trying out a few more, of those lucious shot cottons....I'm using them on the back as well, and hope the quilt doesn't end up being to light weight.

    Adore it, love it, covet it! And if it is a bit lightweight, it can be the perfect summer quilt.
