Distractions have kept me out of my sewing room... but I finally found my way back this week.
My goal is to remain focused on WIPs. I have so many! My local guild quilt show is coming up- and at this time I have NOTHING finished to enter!
I decided to try to complete the piecing of my selvage quilt this week.
(I started it over a year ago!)
If I can get the topper done- I will just pass it on and let someone else quilt it.
(I am too far behind to stress over completion on my standard machine...)
I collect selvages & sorted them by colors
I pieced the selvages to create "fabric"
Different shapes allow the creation of different STAR quilt blocks

I completed 20 blocks before Quiltcon of varied sizes for a quilt layout class. I returned home with lots of ideas... but never sewed them together.
Over the months, other projects demanded attention & it got packed up.
But it is out now & back on the design wall!
block layout ideas?
block layout ideas?
Finally I chose one & decided to start sewing together clusters & columns.
I had one layer cake left & several other bits & pieces... so whatever the final topper is... that's all there is.
