The other three 6" panels




Info in the following post. Elizabeth and friend, hope you like them!

6" panels for a private swap




Just wanted to post my final results. We got the idea from a Quilting Arts issue. I offered it as a swap in one of my groups but did not get a good response. Elizabeth, a friend of hers, and I are doing 2 squares for each person so we end up with 6 including our own. I did not exactly stick to the color scheme for mine, so I made an extra panel in case the other two were too busy for what they wanted to create with it. I got a little delayed in doing it with my sister's passing. I also had the end of school. I lost my muse for a couple of weeks. It is slowly coming back. She is dipping her big toe back into the water. My muse is slowing wading back in.

Peek at my squares


I am in a private swap. Here are two of my six squares. Just wanted to share before I delete the scans off my hard drive. What I love about private swaps is that I know that the quality of what I get back will be as good (or even better!) than what I have sent out. I know that most people put a lot of work into their swaps. You have to admit though that you will sometimes get those one or two pieces that look slapped together - glue is all over it, not dried yet, stinky, or one sticker is stuck on as the focal point. I also like the smaller quantity. I get to do more with it. Even though sometimes less is more. Yes, rambling now. Need tea and snackie before beddy-bye. BTW, even though my current love affair is with fabric, I can't get away from metal. Metal will always be my best friend.
