Plugging Along

little did I know. . .

I've been slowly working on the 2.5 inch strip sets from last week's post and have made visible progress. The smaller scraps and some longer ones have been sewn and then subcut into 2.5 inch sets (two patches). The shoebox-sized plastic bin is full of the subcuts.

Note: Tracy asked how I selected the fabric for the strip sets: it's controlled random, as I try to have a fabric that "reads" light and one "reads" dark in the sets. Since the four patches and the ultimate sixteen patches are going to be scrappy, I don't want to coordinate the fabrics too much in the strip sets.

Next step - pairing these subcuts and making four patch units.
