 My shared workspace, a sunroom off the living room, is quite visible. I wanted to find an attractive way to cover up my pinboards when they're not actively being used that wouldn't spoiling the aesthetic of the living room and decided upon a crazy quilt. The focal fabric is the beetle print & I've also utilized yellow & orange fabric that was left over from the living room cushions. Then, I added additional fabric scraps from various outfits, including red & green raw silk; blue embossed silk; red-blue, green-blue, & orange-pink two-tone katan silks; orange, green, & pink jamawar. I finished it with olive green and gold ribbon from the household gift-wrapping stash. The quilt will consist of six 12"x12" blocks. The pictures above and below are of the first two pieced blocks. This was the first time that I've used the sewing machine, so there's a lot of experimentation happening, but I've been enjoying the challenge so far.
