tuesday dreary

Susan ,had asked if I had a pattern for this project. I have to say I've never used a pattern. But I did, make a sketch, which, I also rarely ever do. But I was doodling on the phone, and did this. ( I was on hold, so it's ok!)

Its pretty easy, and went together very quickly. I used
3" x 6" rectangles color of your choice = 130 cut pieces. (26 per row)
+ 13 WHITE (65 cut pieces) 3" X 6"
+ 13 WHITE(65 cut pieces) 5.5" X 6"
+ 6 WHITE 4" strips to join them all together...
and maybe and outside border but I haven't gotten that far yet....

to make the above pattern, and flip flop them to make a like a zipper effect...

I will also add then, a 4" long strip of white between each row, as I prefer the rows a bit farther apart...


Easy Peasy!

When I cut out my rectangles, I cut WAY to many, so i am actually going to make another one, but make each row, one color... And will use the same purple for the backing on that too. I don't know what it is with me and purple lately... very NOT ME! ooh! wow, I'm really out there!

But then again, I just bought some of this, below.

Now THIS is me! Right!



AND, I may have to EAT MY WORDS about using a pattern... I saw this on FLickr... Isn't it awesome! I guess it's Moda Fabrics. I love it.
I just might NEED one of these quilts.....
Brown, AND ORANGE! my favorite color~! HEAVEN.

Well, I might not need the pattern,
But I GOTTA get me some of that fabric...
