Hi All, I have joined the 30 quilt designs by April challenge by mmmquilts! it really helped me get my ideas for the AHIQ playing with scale quilt moving along.
I have created several of the elements I want to put together in this quilt. I am getting pretty nervous to see if they do go together
I knew what I wanted to do (mostly) and I had some bits started so I put them together in design entry #1
This past weekend I cut and sewed neutrals for the background with some vertical diamonds. And I resized all of the extra hexies to 3" hexies for the skirt. It was too hard to combine different sizes of hexies, that's an EPP game I am not ready to play yet.
I can't wait to show you all of the pieces together. I think the next step will be drafting a paper pattern for the dress and body and hair. Hello, pencil and scotch tape!

I am staying hopeful and I'm interested in seeing how your playing with scale quilt works out.
ReplyDeleteThis is so interesting, Sarah. Thanks for sharing your idea sketch. I noticed how you're fitting the pieced rows into the figure and want to watch that develop. Plus, you've chosen a very sophisticated color and fabric scheme. This is one to follow.
