If you had lots of parts.......how would you start a kitchen sink quilt?
From the middle?
Would you add to make different size blocks all the same?
Would you start with color? Or a pretty block?
Or draw your eye to that area?
I have been finding all kinds of things as i clean
One block.....a gorgeous huge sunflower type dresdan applique
A few blocks but not enough for a quilt. . ..
And blocks from mindkess sewing
Even strips of blocks sewn but that quilt i am no longer interested in
Do you color match?
Go scrappy?
Make it look planned?
How would you tackle it?????
I throw all the blocks together first--higgeldy-piggeldy-- to see what I have and then: begin to move them about and see what kind of coping strips I need to use to pull them together. Have fun hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteYes, just toss them all on the floor or table and start playing jig-saw puzzle. Add spacers or braces, box some, what ever - just play.
ReplyDeleteYep Sharon and Julierose have the right idea.
