I've been following Pat Sloan for the past year, started around March when the pandemic started. Thankfully that bit of our lives is coming to an end. Pat has given us a free block to create one a day for March. https://blog.patsloan.com/2021/03/march-kickoff-do-you-have-trouble-with-selecting-colors.html
And she gives us a lesson in selecting colors to put together. After 35 years as an interior designer, colors come easy to me. I did like her first version with the pink and teal but she felt it was too busy. So I'm thinking, do I want to start making a block a day? Its easy for me to keep up with but I'm already doing her Home blocks and the Sewcialite blocks which come out on Friday. Do I want to add another? Not sure.
Yesterday, I had pulled out all of the patriotic fabrics that I want to get rid of, or "share" with others. There were 4 tops that were started. Someone who is creative could just add some borders and they would be big enough for Quilts of Valor. I filled one of those grocery paper bags to the top and still have more I can stuff into another bag. Last year, when I sewed along with Unity, I delved into my patriotic fabrics and used quite a bit of them. So the rest of them just need a new home. I still have quite a bit I am keeping so why not share the rest? There are quite a few 2 1/2" squares and 2 1/2" HST. Someone will enjoy them! On to organizing.
You do have an eye for color. Sometimes hubby just looks at me like, really, you're using those together?
