Using it in the garden or even a planter would be fun though.Magpie Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09930036522719103192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-576732685143160314.post-35074199924496675242010-06-02T20:06:17.636-04:002010-06-02T20:06:17.636-04:00Thanks Rossie...I'll be watching for it :)Thanks Rossie...I'll be watching for it :)Colleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05012718481371649308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-576732685143160314.post-31325167231165871372010-06-02T17:10:23.391-04:002010-06-02T17:10:23.391-04:00ah, I love it when the organization bug bites.

I've been a traditional quilter but find the tediousness of cutting and looking at patterns discouraging so I tried making an "improv" table runner just to see what I could come up with....and I loved the spontaneity of the "pattern". Now, I'm really hooked :) My question for you is: how do you put together a large piece with all the negative space and colored random pieces here and there to make it a modern quilt? I just haven't figured out how to do that. Do you have a tutorial or can you recommend one to me? Thanks :)Colleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05012718481371649308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-576732685143160314.post-83659220029843037742010-06-01T12:26:40.532-04:002010-06-01T12:26:40.532-04:00Hi, Rossie, I am new to your blog, via Valentina&#...Hi, Rossie, I am new to your blog, via Valentina's Corner, and the "Process Pledge". I wanted to see what that was all about. I am, somewhat abashedly, a hand applique, needleturn, hand quilting, dinosaur, and I love it. Only recently have I become intrigued by blogs with buttons disclaiming "fresh, modern, hip, comtemporary" quilts............and I fear I have been sucked in. So far, it amounts to purchasing a lot of fabrics that fall into the above catagory (IMHO) But, your blog is now a favorite, and we shall see if an old dog can truly learn a new trick, or two.
