First Attempt

Yesterday some of the solids I ordered for the Solids swap came in the mail so I had a go last night trying to do some free form art quilty sewing.  This piece measures 20 inches by 20 inches.  I don't know.  It's fun to do, but I'm not sure what it takes to make free form look good.  I ordered the Jean Wells book, maybe once I have a chance to read it I'll learn something.  I only had a handful of colors to work with as well.  Hmmmm.... I was trying to go for less color, but I just kept adding to it, so maybe I should have held back a bit.  The quilting could add a bit of interest to it to, we'll see.

I like this, especially the red stripe in the middle that tapers to a point. I'm interested to see how you'll quilt it... that can really make all the difference.
