Waves

I'm playing with fabric today!!!

:)

A few wavy cuts here....

a few wavy seams there.....

The modern8create group handed out a challenge...

LAST MONTH!

Oops!

Choose a palette and make something.

So....

That's what I'm finally getting around to!!!

:/

The HARDEST part was walking from the computer screen

with the Picture and palette of color...

and then

Walking into another room

to SEARCH for the right COLOR!

Looks like I might need to add some GREEN.

Guess I missed that walking back and forth!

Next up:

Deciding if I want wavy lines

up and down.

OR....

Waves from

SIDE to side.

;)

bee block.

Since signing up for two virtual quilting bees I now have

a new reason to look forward to the beginning of each month!

Two little packages came this week.

Maybe I should have signed up for more bees....??

I love getting little packages!

Especially ones that are filled with fun fabric!!

I wanted to sign up for more, but decided I better see if I could

keep up with two bees first!

This quilt block is going back to Ruth

from the modern quilt bee.

She asked for a 12.5" block.

For guidelines on How to make the block...she said,

"The sky's the limit!"

"do anything"

and,
"do something that maybe you haven't done before".

I decided to make some waves,

So that those jelly fish and mermaids

would have a place to swim!

I overlapped the first two pieces a little bit
then used my handy dandy
rotary cutter and cut
a very gentle wavy line!



They match!
Sew those two together and then
keep adding waves!


I especially like the way the very simple
embroidery stitches add dimension
to the waves!

I'm now thinking about making waves around
a four patch.
Do you think that will work??
We'll see.
