Out of the UFO pile and into the finished pile! This small piece, measuring 26.5" by 22", went fairly quickly even though it was a little tedious cutting all the triangles. I wanted to make a two color quilt and came across this pretty blue fabric with kind of a paisley pattern paired up with a soft blue and white stripe. I've named it "Something Blue" for lack of any imagination on my part. If you have a better suggestion I'm open to your comments.
Piece is now part of a private collection.

Blue Green Line - Spirals, Stripes, Salamanders and Dots
Now showing the Blue Green Line set of fat quarters hand dyed by yours truly. Though the colorway is limited and the designs are simple, but the techniques were varied in creating this grouping. I used mono-printing, stamping (with my own stamps that I designed), painted on thickened dye, dye paste and over-dyeing. The designs are spirals, stripes, salamanders and dots. Again I have used fat quarter sized pieces of 100% cotton fabric. This is an easily managed size to work with, although larger pieces of other designs and colors are in my stash that I have also designed, you just need more room to spread out! Here are a couple of views. Have a look, hope you like what you see.
