- It was inspired by the awesome improv quilting movement (which is time consuming, difficult, and makes no sense even to a person who would dance naked in her yard).
- I couldn't use the thread I wanted because it kept shredding in my machine... so for some reason that is a reason to hate this quilt.
- The bright green thread didn't give me the effect I was hoping for.
- Stupid improv....
I have been working on a lot of other various projects but instead of my incomplete stuff (and I truly just don't feel like typing about me right now), I thought I would just share a couple of photos of some of the things being worked on at our quilting day out in Laporte, Saskatchewan.
That is all for me today, head over to the Needle and Thread Network to check out some really great Canadian talent.
i have had some of those!!! love your clown quilt
ReplyDeleteI think we all have had these ones.....I love that clown quilt!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYup, I've had some projects like that for sure. I did an improv baby quilt and loved the process and results. It looked a little different than yours though.
ReplyDeleteSome days and some quilts are just like that! You persevered and I love how it turned out...modern to the nth degree! Inspiration is good for our creative quilt souls too! :)...You will get back on that quilting horse in no time!
ReplyDeleteI love the clowns! Is that a pattern?
ReplyDeleteYes the clown quilt is a pattern. I didn't make it though. I'll try and remember to ask the lady who did make it what the pattern is.
DeleteYou did finish! And I like the zig zags!
ReplyDeleteLove the tumbling clowns!
ReplyDeleteI love the tumbling clowns too and all the other eye candy! I know exactly what you mean by a quilt you hate. I eventually finished my "quilt in a day log cabin" after 20 years. Think back in that time frame of colours - it was brown and orange with a bit of purple. Of course, once the squares were together, it screamed A & W!! It is done and I still hate it!
ReplyDeletelovely work
ReplyDeleteThanks for the ideas your share here
ReplyDeleteSo far, I am looking for a source of reference on various websites
Now I have found what I was looking for all this time
I keep the spirit to strive to be the best, one of which is a reference from your idea that really helped me.
Once again I want to say thank you

Oh it is a relief to hear someone else speak honestly about improv quilting! Tried it once and found it wasteful of fabric and yes, time-consuming! And not fun! Give me the beauty & symmetry & repetition of more traditional quilt blocks any day!
