The monthly color challenge at Freemotion By The River this month is green. I dug deep into my green scrap bin and began casually sewing like-shapes together and didn't have a real plan. Then it was time to make something from them.
I began in the center with the half square triangles. They didn't inspire me much so I separated them with a thin strip; then framed around that. I had to stripset pairs which I used to build up the width. I really was thinking this one is so ugly; then I added the light print top and bottom. It has grown on me now Sewing with your little scraps takes alot of time and makes alot of mess.
I pulled a couple leftover chunks from that bin to make the back too. Don't look too closely at the free motion quilting. I was trying to work with the Every Wave template by Amanda Murphy, I might have done better if I made some registration lines or watched a video. I eventually scrapped the template and quilted widely spaced wiggly lines.
