More Scrap Slabbing

 

When I clean my workspace, I often make slabs of whatever color fabrics I have. I have stacks of these triangles in many colors. Back in March I toyed around with them but wasn't feeling this love for this.

I tried alternating the blocks but I wasn't excited about that either, so I packed the pieces away. Lately I have been watching my pal Julie tinker with the same idea and I decided to revisit these colorful blocks.


Taking a page from Julie, I divided the blues and greens into lights and darks, added pinks and put the blocks up on the wall. I knew I'd have to add some blue green triangles way over on the right, but I didn't have any blocks I liked, so when I went into the studio the other day, I made a stack of them.

I was happy with that, so I started adding some creamy light side triangles. I will sew these together.

I've made thirteen variations of this quilt. You can get the tutorial here, at my Etsy shop.

The color sort plus the vertical orientation makes such a difference!

Ah, yes -- now we can all feel some love with this one. Kefi worked more magic than we realized when I started the first slabs there in your studio three years ago.
