Wednesday WOW – July 20

It’s been very hot around here lately.  You know this when you hear someone refer to a forecast of 92 degrees as a “cool spell.”  And they were serious!!

Well, it’s perfect weather for staying indoors and playing  working in the studio.  The theme for the August postcards is “confetti” or those snippets and threads that fabric lovers can never seem to throw away.  Oh boy – have I got a lot of that!

Since I have too much to work with on a small project, I rummaged through and pulled only the fabric that had fusible web already on it.  That’s what that pile above is. . . just from one bag!

So, I have some snippets fused down.  And, of course, I have some ideas for more “confetti” work so there’s no telling what (or how many) the final postcard will be!

The triangle piece on the left is one of the pennants I am making for another swap.  I gave those a little attention today, too.  Not sure what the next step is, though.  Guess I’ll have to let it simmer on the back burner for a bit!

Well, wow! I've been away for a while, and it was fun to come back and browse through what you've been up to. I love those postcards! What great work. And the crazy quilting is interesting. I didn't know you did that.

Did you make a Hoffman this year? I just read that the travelers are posted and it made me nostalgic that I didn't try this year. Oh well, there'll be next year.
