Shuffling -

Is next on the agenda -

For the Victoria and Albert Interweave -

But first I had to lay out all of the strips on the kitchen island - ;))

You can see that some combinations are very bright and obvious -

And I only want one coral and one white on the bottom portion of the quilt -

And on the top portion -

So this will work -

Some sets are a little more subtle -

The third one from the right and the last one on the right -

Have the same purple fabric on the end -

And these two coral strips are the same fabric -

It's easy enough to fix if I take both the blue and coral strips and "reverse" them -

So that one coral is on the top and one is on the bottom - of the quilt top -

This other coral is similar - but not the same -

And will be moved in the next "shuffle" -

When I shuffle them from side to side -

These purple matchey ones were fixed -

The same way I fixed the matching coral ones above -

I took both the green and the purple strips and "reversed" them -

So that one purple is on the top and one is on the bottom - of the quilt top -

These blue/purples are similar - but not the same -

So - no matchey matcheys on this (top) side -

And no matchey matcheys on this (bottom) side -

So that worked out better than I thought it would -

Tomorrow is round two of the "shuffle" -

I want/need to separate the ones that look similar -

And mix up the colors a little more -

From left to right -

Then I can sew them together -

And play with the placement of the border sections - ;))



Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -
