Murmuration Started

The colors for this Rebecca Bryan quilt of diamonds of string piecing have been curated using her method of color fabric chips to get the gradation from darkest to lightest. All these are from my stash which was another goal I had to see my stash differently. It worked. Don't think I would have pulled these without the pattern and color guidance.


The first three center blocks that are from the darkest colors.

Six more diamonds an the color starts to show some light peaking through. I am anxious to get more diamonds done but alas....

I have lost use of my right hip for all practical purposes and am waiting to get the surgery date for hip replacement done.  Darn this slows me down but not out. I am in the process of getting my machine from my studio upstairs to the downstairs and soon will have a downstairs set up to get back on this. In the meantime I am working on a a Christmas Stocking for our new GreatGrand Dtr Riley Hope born Oct. 31.
Funny I bought this one in 2002 off a sale rack at Hobby Lobby for $5  the price was $17.99 so quite a bargain. Figured I would use it some day and now is that day.
