While in NY in the spring, I picked up my very first Jelly Roll: Moda's Modern Workshop by Liesl Gibson.
I started thinking about what I wanted to do with it. Sketch #1:
Sketch #2: I liked this better.
But in fabric...too much of good thing?
So now I'm thinking about this...
and this.
Once I got the idea of doing some single color blocks I dipped into my stash a little. :)
I'm just going to make some more scrappy blocks and then I'll put it back on the design wall and decide which way I want to go. (Did you notice the light switch: my design wall is truly a wall-I just stuck a little masking tape behind the blocks and stuck them on the living room wall.
What's on your design wall? Check out all the wonderful work on
Design Wall Monday at Patchwork Times.
I've embroidered the first block for this year's LQS Redwork Club Mystery Quilt-the theme is butterflies and I've designed all the blocks (with inspirational help from vintage designs.)
The blocks will look like they're set on point but actually the set of the quilt is straight. Fun, huh?
I'm planning on a pebble pattern inside the rectangles-repeating the circles like in the "sashing" but just circles. 
I sewed all the rows together. The center of the quilt top is finished!
Only borders are left and I have two ideas of what I'm going to do. I do like how this is looking.
