trapezoids

When we were at the mountain, I found a quilt store in Bellingham that I liked. I really liked it. What I was seeing just felt very creative and I liked their stock. Now, most of what I bought there is still in Utah but I brought back some scrappy bits.
The store cuts 5 inch squares in multiple different prints. They package 21 prints together for 42 squares. It means I could get one of my normal nine squares from it or two not normal. It would add a difference to my quilts since I really did not pick my fabrics. But I decided to do something totally different.
I cut trapezoids.
Small trapezoids that I am stitching together. This may be a center of a quilt. Or it may be a bit on the back. Or I may be asked to make it into a quilt for Spikey or Bruce Banner, Koda Bear's soft friends. But I know I am having fun. I have messed it up a bit but that is not surprising. This is the first time I have tried anything like this.
Quilts at my sewing machine. Lovely times at my wheel. More time in a tent with tea over a fire this weekend. Life is good.
