Something completely different

After sewing all those little pieces I felt for something different: big blocks, no pattern and a little fantasy. I guess this is creazy quilting! I used a left-over fabric (Ikea) with different coloured stripes, and cut them into long strips. Then I cut and sew just pieces with the idea of a log cabin block.

All the blocks are about 13 inches (35 cm), I want to make a few more for a picknickplaid (the fabric is very strong). So this is a good reason to go to Ikea!

Plaids from the past

Long before I knew about quilting I liked to sew and play with fabrics. I made several plaids to use in my family. This one I made from all different pieces, cut into triangles.

As you see, no quilting but despite of it it's a very nice plaid for a picknick, for going to the beach, for building a tent in the garden, for lying under on the couch....

  This next one looks a little funny, but if you think about the game Twister... yeah, you can play it on this plaid!

For the backside I used all different kind of ribbons. All this fabrics are from Ikea, my favourite Swedish shop :).
