The quilt, in bits and pieces<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I’ve had a little time to work some more on this baby quilt, which is now quite behind the times. At this point I’m more tardy than the baby was premature! Still, I have hopes of finishing it in short order.<\/p>\n

After several false starts, I decided to make an organically built scrap quilt, from squares and half-square triangles exclusively. I made a ton of half-square triangles with finished size of 1 inch. (See my earlier post<\/a> about that.) At that\u00a0I stepped back in horror and wondered what possessed me to work at a 1-inch scale. So I made some half-square triangles and squares at double size (a whopping 2 inches, for those who are mathematically challenged). And then I started putting them together as seemed pleasing. I’ve got seven squares together now, and the makings of probably another five squares right there on the top step of the stairs that lead up from the basement sewing room. If that doesn’t seem enough, I’ll continue making more pieces, or maybe just have some blank squares interspersed.<\/p>\n

It’s very unusual for me to begin with only a cellular plan and no overall plan.<\/p>\n

I’m liking it.<\/p>\n
