some pics

Hi Tonya, it's Elizabeth - I have to figure out how to have it put my name! thanks for your comment. where can I find the rose tutorial??!


after posting last night, I thought to add some images, so here are a few

this is a piece that has been waiting for years to come to a conclusion - it was a repetition of large, upholstery weight corduroy squares/ rectangles. I'm going to use some of the chenille bedspread to back it. yay!





this is the chenille with some florals...














and this is something that I put together with the idea of trellis/ rose... but it isn't big enough to be a blanket on its own.




















but it got me to thinking that I could take another dark print and mix it with another chintz and then cut them into larger squares to piece together for a blanket sized blanket :-) repeat until arriving at desired size.

not yet started, but happy to be here

Just to say hello to the group. I signed up a few weeks ago and have been checking in for inspiration.  I have a chenille bedspread in a dusty rose that I want to use, with various floral remnants, but have not yet come up with my 'repetition'.  

hmmm, maybe roses! the chenille could be fun texture.

I have made patchwork/piecework blankets over the years, usually two sided, usually geometric, always free form.  I enjoy working without a pattern (though I should probably take that challenge!)  I recently learned to knit, but definitely think more like a sew-er than a loop de loop-er.
