Christmas colors - 12/3/20 -

 
 
I sewed three sets of strata today - 

 
And then saw that I had two sets with two of the same fabrics in them - 
 
Strip #1 - RED (Main Diagonal) and Strip #5 - NEUTRAL -  


I try not to do that - 
 
I need TWO matching strata to make six matching blocks - I call that a "set" -
 
But if I have two more of the same "Main Diagonal" fabric -
the first RED in this case -
 
I try to mix up the other four fabrics so that I have some variety - 
 
I missed it this time - so I checked to see if I had missed it on any others - 
 
And I had - so I fixed it by swapping out the "matchey" ones - 
 
It's easy if I keep the "sets" together -
 
What I do to one - I do to the other - so they remain "identical" - 
 
So - three sets down - five more to go -
 
Then I can press them all - 
 
And get them cut - ;))

I love that these are "near solids." It adds a nice visual texture to the strata.
