quilting, part 1.

so when life decided it was time to shake things up and handed me a fair bit more spare time than i had been working with, i decided it was time to try making a quilt. after a trip to the fabric stores, i had this to work with...

next was a night of tv and the cutting of many squares.

then, because i had an uneven amount of all the squares, i decided to simply lay them out in a visually agreeable way.

and then pinned them into the rows i had laid out for sewing.

sewing commenced, one row at a time.

after studies.
