Day 65---Slightly stiff today...probably the heat and humidity. I am looking forward to PT this week so they can manipulate and relax some of those muscles around the rotor cuff that are frozen.
I managed a little sewing over the last couple of days. So I have 3 runs completed and have 3 more stacked up to sew of the floral braid. This is just a temporary arrangement until I get the rest done and then I will play with the runs and see what happens. You have to squint or stand back a bit to get the real blended effect.
The braid is about 30 inches long, so this will be a small one. I will finish off the points with triangles.
Have you noticed or seen the Winter Olympic banners? I am intrigued by them....blending and bold colors. Good inspiration here, maybe a couple of seasonal banners based on them? Not sure, still playing around with this in my head. My first impression was 1000 pyramids , but not so.....diamonds in various sizes, a piecing nightmare! But I bet we will be seeing quilts inspired by them all over soon.
Happy stitching.
Very pretty - and yes, those banners are sure to inspire some quilts.
ReplyDeleteI wasn't sure how the braid was going to look in colorwash and it is really attractive.
ReplyDeleteI hope the PT is a positive and helpful experience for you.
ReplyDeleteThose Olympic banners are beautiful.
That braid quilt is going to be beautiful. You just have a natural way with blending colors so beautifully.
ReplyDeleteOh, those olympic banners are beautiful. I bet a quilter designed them. ;)
