Sunday Sewing = Flimsy

#Scrappytripalong

 

It is amazing how a few posts on Instgram by  Megan, Brenda and Rita 

late last year and one hash tag can really take off.

 

I find myself reaching for the Ipad just to check out the hash tag

to see what everyone has been up to

 

I am excited to say that my scrap boxes are a little lighter now

and I have completed 36 blocks!

 

 

I did find putting these blocks together a little challenging.

The construction was easy, it was the fabric selection I struggled with.

I think I can do scraps and Rainbow but struggle with "Scrappy Scraps"

if you know what I mean. They scare scared me.

 

I gave up laying all the blocks out and seeing my progress

 as I was not liking what I saw. I just gave in to random selection,

made the blocks and hoped that in the end I would

have the look I was after .....

 Scrappy and not to much yuck factor.

 

So what do you think?

I think, I like it a LOT :)

 

But what to use as a Backing and the binding?

I'm thinking a solid,

Need to think about this for a bit more though so for now

it is now off to hang with some other Flimsy's.

 

So that was this mornings sewing, as for the afternoon.

Here is a hint :o)

 

 

and I am using a decorative stitch.

Something I've not done before

Am I mad?

Possibly :o)
