I ordered my solids for the Solids Swap on Flickr but they still haven't arrived yet. It sort of makes it difficult to make what I had been planning to make. So, luckily I had a few solids in colors my partner said she liked. It's only a small variety and I was hoping for a much bigger variety. I want to work with solids much more in the future too, so I do would to have them in my stash as well.
I have had a Storm at Sea template set for years that I had not used previously. Today it was staring at me in the face saying, "use me, use me". This block is what I came up with--it's about 14 inches. I don't know what to do with it though. Do I keep on building this larger? Do I stop and make this into a hot pad. What should I do? I'm not very happy with my piecing skills either, but I am keen to keep on and see if I can improve as I go along. My partner asked for something to hang in the window.... I could do that, but I have no idea how people finish a piece that hangs in the window. She also asked for a table runner, placemats, bag, etc... What to do???

I love the idea of a table runner. Maybe make another 2 blocks and join the three together?? I love the block and solids are so inviting - simple, elegant almost understated. I can't wait to see what you decided to do.
