Took all my social mojo for the week, but hit the fabric store with my WIPs to settle the borders. Possible that I overdid it a bit (shocking); had to reorg the yardage before everything would fit without making me twitchy.
| Quilt | Current Size | Borders | Finished Size | Binding |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Natty Foxes | 42 x 42 | 4″ vermillion with white speckles | 50 x 50 | Red-orange with wheels |
| Basket Case | 60 x 72 | 1″ white 3″ navy fleurish | 67 x 79 | Navy fleurish |
| Tentacular | 48 x 72 | 2″ pebbled blue 1″ solid orange 3″ mottled black | 60 x 84 | Pick a black |
My stash oranges are either too bright and yellow-leaning, or too sedate and desaturated. Managed to resist the bold patterns for stage 2, but figured I was already all-in on the leafy-mixers. The yellow is pushing the highlight, but was too fun to leave behind. And I do still have the swirly orange if I need to rein it in. Rein in. Rain on. Reign over.
Obviously, I need a break, as Tentacular has clearly scrambled my synapses. Too stressed to paint, so for now, finish projects and close loops. Or design a giant tentacle. Whatever. Just raise the volume and keep the spinning to a minimum.
