The last few times I've posted I have pretty much just finished a section and then shared it, so I thought this time I'd share some of the playing around I do along the way.
If I've used up most of my little bits and pieces I always replenish the pile before I do anything else, but this time I had a reasonable stock.
At this stage I also know that there are patterns that have emerged that I want to repeat, so I will be looking to add the two blue fabrics that provide the vertical strips as well.
I have also noticed that in a lot of places I have used the crosses in pairs (often two red/blue or two white/blue). Again, at this stage I will bear that in mind as I go.
Sadly I didn't have enough time today for any actual sewing, but thought this might be of passing interest. Also, taking the photos is always a good exercise, so hopefully by the time I can work on this properly something coherent will have started to form in the deep recesses of my mind.
In the meantime, a reminder that tomorrow is AHIQ link-up day so hopefully some of you reading this will have good things to share!

Fun to see how Improv comes together. Recognizing your natural impulses in sorting and arranging is helpful, I'm sure.

Seeing how other quilters work through the design process is so very interesting, thanks for sharing with us.
I'm enjoying seeing this grow :)
