A co-worker is making 1500 of these "mini quilts" for a regional church event this fall. I volunteered to contribute a few. I threw these together this evening, just to make sure she and I are on the same page before I begin mass production.
There are no rules for colors or combinations - just a four-patch made from 2 1/2" squares, sewn to a backing (no batting), turned and pressed. She will drop in a small cross and stitch them shut. Easy-peasy! Only 1,497 to go.I have to admit that my fascination with Zentangles is also crimping my sewing time. They are so addictive and I can "zen" while watching TV - or more precisely, while ignoring what Dave's watching, yet at least being in the same room, rather than hiding in the sewing room. Here are a few of my recent creations:

Needlework Tuesday is hosted by Heather at Books and Quilts.
Very nice, Tami! I love the circle one. I admit that drawing using zentangle patterns is taking up a lot of my free time, too, but I haven't done anything as elaborate as you have. Great work.
ReplyDeleteYour Zentangle's are amazing. I am very impressed!
ReplyDeleteWow, that is quite a project that your co-worker has undertaken. good of you to help out.
ReplyDeleteYour Zentangles look great. I got a new book this week Zen-sational Stitches for Quilting by Suzanne McNeill and she machine stitched pictures and turned them into quilts. It is this potential that attracted me to Zentangles.
I am zen-challenged ... please help me soon. LOVE THEM!!!
ReplyDeleteAMAZING zentangles!
