BAGS TIME ........again....

Two special bags for two special people....

...linen and KF fabric for my friend Marina.....

...different linen for my SIL Graziella!

After a break......

....I can show you my new work!

Kaffe Fasset HST top

This has been my first work with Kaffe Fasset  (Paperweight Collection) so I have decided for a simple block to bring out the colors and the design of the fabrics.

I made 224 HST (12.5 cm finished) using also three gray shades: a good choise to balance so many colors.

But when I finished all the blocks I had to lay out them to see the result and decide for the colors position. OK.....where?

Not on my design wall: too small!

Of course on the floor! (Our friend floor: I think that the floor is a great instrument for the quilters!)

With the help of my hub (!?!) I created my personal "design floor" : a grid with string and adhesive tape. A perfect grid with the quilt measures (about 2,00 cm x 2,20 CM)

Little by little, I composed my top, checking the colors and the measures.

I have to say...this grill has been a big trick!

I made a little squares border and now I'm working on the back of the top ......and I can say that it'll be a surprise.
