They were completely addictive and I am quite anxious to find time to make some more, and have spent a while today considering how they might be finished.
Without Pins is the title of my Patchwork classes. I am a Quilter, textile teacher and general fabric collector - or does it come and find me? I like to play with colour and subvert pattern by the use of tone. I have always sewn and stitch something, somewhere, every day.

Experimental piecing
While I was on quilt retreat I spent some time making these tiny experimental blocks. Every so often I revert to free piecing and am constantly attracted to Contemporary work where colour and contrast are important elements in the design. Although unplanned these have quite an architectural flavour.

Back to preparations for class on Saturday. My students are studying Log Cabin and Pineapple blocks, and the fun Woodpile block too. After Christmas we will be playing with Curved Piecing.
