actually, it makes me dizzy.
ben was complimentary of it, but we agreed that it's kinda trippy.
at the same time, i'm super proud of it... because it took FOREVER to cut all those tiny little pieces and put them all together and it's kinda cool how it comes together.
speaking of coming together, the colors/fabrics did not come together like i thought. i figured picking out the fabrics would be the easy part, but apparently it's not. it's hard to know what they'll look like all chopped up into various shapes and sizes and pieced together.
(oh, that one's not quite done... still need to add a border, the back and all the stuff that actually makes it a quilt.)
in other quilting news, i cut 175 5-inch squares during a downtown abbey marathon last night (thank you, netflix) for my next quilt project. this whole process is very addicting. you think, okay just 10 more squares. but then why not 20. or 100!
the project is a large patchwork quilt - pieced together at random. mostly red with pops of turquoise and a couple other colors. saw this idea in a book. we'll see if it turns like it is in my head.
Here's some of the fabric (there's a couple more colors yet to be cut!)
back to cutting... did i mention it's addicting? ;)
