Change of Plans







I've been cutting and getting my fabrics ready to go to my friends retreat in Virginia and I leave tomorrow. While doing that I did come across my Christmas fabrics that I was going to use for a Log Cabin quilt but have since decided to do a Slash and Dash by Jackie Robinson with the Christmas fabrics.


Above you can see all of the strips I cut and then sewed the greens, reds, etc. into one continuous strip to do a string pieced star. Looks like a lot of fabric doesn't it? Well, it's really only 2.5 yards according to my rough estimate and match. But at least they're all ready to go when I'm ready to start sewing.
