Follow my process re-posts of the Beth El Synagogue Torah Mantels.

Strips are cut irregularly without a ruler from Beth El clothing and silk shantung purchased for the project, 1″ to 1/2″ wide. I’m making sheets of fabric. Some are all solids, some alternate light prints with solids, some alternate prints and solids, all prints, etc. These strip pieced fabrics will all get cut up and remixed later on.
Those blocks of color are remarkable. I’m doing something similar, but not with my color discretion, it’s for a memory quilt. I just discovered your blog, and I’m so excited to follow you to see how this ends up, and hope that mine will turn out just as beautiful. Thank you for the inspiration!
delicious as is. but then i am sure you will take it up another notch, huh?
Yes you are so right Mary. Whenever I think I’m almost there, I discover I’m only just beginning!
Your website is so beautiful. This week I’ve been working with the idea of soul, and when I wrote down what makes me happy, color was very big! and color is light. So sorry S.F. has been cold and cloudy. We in Oregon know how that feels.
I would like to send something to you privately. Do you have a private email address?
love,
Gwen
Oooo, I love them just like they are as stripes! The colors are wonderful.
