The Guest Blogger(s) - Vol. 30 - Pat Plays with Improv

Welcome to another edition of The Guest Blogger(s)!!  Another post in this series, already?  That's right!  An email came in from Miss Pat this afternoon.  I'm always happy to hear from a returning TABLE SCRAPS Challenge participant.

She's here with her February 2022 entry...

Aqua improv piece:

My reply...

Very nice, Pat! Care to tell my readers a little about your process or motivation? I'm always happy to share the "low down" along with the photo of the TABLE SCRAPS Challenge projects. How are you thinking of using or displaying your AQUA/TEAL entry?

Thanks for playing along!

Joy

This is what she had to say...

I knew you would want more info, but I just couldn't figure out what  to say.  Try this:

Having not made a Table Scraps project since last September, I knew I had to get back in the saddle.  The theme for February was "Improv", not one of my specialties.  So I turned to Joy and LeAnna (Not Afraid of Color) for some input.  LeAnna referred me to books by Jean Wells and one by Jan Mullen called "Cut-Loose Quilts" which I actually owned.  I chose this wonky log cabinish block, intending to make a flower.  I stalled out after finishing the flower block.  Realizing I only had a few days to get it done, I took the easy way out and made a simple mat.  This will be used on one of two small round tables I use as plant stands.  Finished size about 9" square.

Give Miss Pat's project some quilty love in the comments below.  I know that you enjoyed seeing her pretty IMPROV table mat as much as I did!  Thank you for sending a photo for the blog, Pat.  I'm thrilled to post your project so that others may be inspired to look through their library of quilting books and try something new, too!
