Thank you received: 309

found a new passion

making small strip squares on-the-go (so not much measurement - lots of crooked lines

but will get better in time - i hope

)
been playing with the bits and pieces that have appeared so far - the possibilities truly are endless:

Attachment {!-- ia2 -->IMG_3239m.jpg{!-- ia2 --> not found

Attachment {!-- ia1 -->IMG_3240m.jpg{!-- ia1 --> not found

{!-- ia0 -->IMG_3241m.jpg{!-- ia0 -->
based on these, have decided to now color-coordinate the squares - have enough color-jumbles - need to tie them all together

I'm in the process of cutting strips so hopefully Monday or Tuesday mine will be at the post office and I will be so ahead of time. Yes I can get something done on time.

Barbgalien OFFLINE Posts: 3	I just sent in my 200 strips today. Just because I had to know.....I figured out that these 200 strips equalled over 4 yards of fabric. What fun! Thanks again Barb for this fabric exchange. Barb in Michigan

lorra OFFLINE Posts: 962 Thank you received: 122	I still need to buy a few more fat quarters to finish up my strips. I was glad to see the pictures, now I will try to find some different colors. Maybe some blacks and whites. The colors are beautiful. Thanks for all you are doing. I have not worked with batiks before and am getting very excited to begin.

Oh, Barb! The volume of the 'good goods' is daunting. When I caught up with you for a few minutes at the Dallas show you mentioned that there was lots of green - no black and white. At my house there is very little green (no black and white there either.) Amazing that you're seeing little duplication. We're all in for a real treat. Now, trying to separate all of that by color? My eyes blur and I bow to your stamina. Thanks so very much.

nimbletheedle OFFLINE Posts: 17	Barb, Thanks for the eye candy pictures. Seeing all of the colors together gives me something to create from. I'm taking a class from Rita Hutchens in a couple of weeks: Totally Tubular. I may try her method with the strips if I can use 1 ½“wide and still get the elongated triangles or diamond shapes to work out.
