I like the brights. I guess you all had that figured out! This piece was made with one set of strips, cut freehand without a ruler, then sliced in irregular widths and flipped every other one to reverse the colors. Since I only considered it an exercise at the time I made it, I hadn't really considered finishing it into a small wallhanging until now.
I like plaids. I wear plaid a lot. I was raised on a farm and wore flannel shirts a lot. When I learned to sew, I loved making plaid clothing to see how accurately matched I could sew it. I like the soft country feel of plaids although one of my friends tells me that even my plaid quilts are bright. I can only guess she means I still use fairly high contrast in the values. This is another unfinished, small piece that I think I will add columns or borders to and make it into a baby quilt.
A week ago I cut some more blocks and got them pieced a couple nights ago. I think this is the final layout.
