I was tired last night so I just sorted batik scraps while I watched 3 shows on TV. I got them sorted into sizes and pressed also. We had a very good turnout for the QOV sew in and got a lot accomplished. I was not at my best after 2 nights of interupted sleep. Sunday night the smoke detector started chirping at 1:30 a.m. It had made a couple chirps the morning before so I looked in the direction sheet that came with it 7 years ago and it said the lithium battery was almost dead when it starts chirping. I figured I had a day or 2 to replace it, but no, it started chirping once every minute 1:30 til 8 a.m. Now in my younger days I would have gotten up, grabbed a ladder and got up there and pulled the battery out, but I'm older and much more cautious about my safety now, plus I'm not sure how steady I would have been at 1:30. I did drift in and out of sleep, but let's say it wasn't very restul.
I had an idea of cutting rectangles to go between the little bits blocks and then stagger them. I thought maybe some black and white prints might work, so I grabbed a couple from my stash and laid the blocks out approximately how they would be if I did it.I like the white with black better than the black with white, but I haven't made any decisions other than that. I probably need to try some other prints too.
