This afternoon I cut out the base pieces and began sewing them together. Tomorrow I hope to get to the next layer of imagery that will go on top of this. I'm feeling better now about my start.

Today Jeannette gave a demonstration on piecing curves, which is very applicable to my quilt idea. Her curving strips which she calls 'story lines' flow and intertwine across her quilts. This morning I laid out the basic background shapes on paper and chose my base fabrics.

Your quilt is going to be beautiful! I love the colors that you chose.
Very interesting. This reminds me of pattern making and cutting stained glass. Looking forward to seeing how you sew curves. I love the color too!
This looks like a blast! I can't wait to see how your quilt comes out!
Such a fascinating process! I love the fabric patterns and colors you chose :)
