I have been doodling again . . .
Too much time on the phone . . . .
I started focusing on nine patch blocks. I am drawn to the nine patch.
Must be that order thing again.
I wanted to see how many different variations on the nine patchI could come up with just doodling away.
I thought I would dive into a bag of silk scraps for this experiment.I didn't have any fusible web . . .
Needless to say, my cutting & ironing board are covered with the fraying threads of silk.
I tried a couple of different nine patches.Then I decided to crank it up a notch.
What if I made a "traditional" nine patch, and then trimmed it up on an angle.
This I LOVE! I need to try these in fabrics that don't fray when you
breathe on them!
These are the four blocks I have so far.
on another note . . . . .
The kid passed her Art Therapy exam!!!
She is now a licensed Art Therapist.
She has quite the little alphabet after her name now.
I am quite the proud mama.

ReplyDeleteCongrats on the exam! she must be so happy.
ReplyDeletei like your 9 patch doodles. the silk blocks look very sophisticated.. what will you do with them? more silk or combine them with other fabrics?
I LOVE these blocks - and soooo pretty in the silks! and I KNOW you are proud of your kiddo, congrats to her! also, had to tell you - I told my hubby about QADD, and he LOVED that - I guess he understood, after living with me for so long, calls himself a qubby! :) Happy weekend of sewing!
