Not even homework.
I came across a Mug Rug swap. It’s a flickr group thing. We’re not meant to blog about it, so this blog post will be posting itself in a couple of days.
One of the things to do, as part of the swap, is to create a mosaic of quilts you like so that your swap partner can get an idea of what to make you. I started off my mosaic allowing for a 5×5 square, but had to increase it to a 6×6 square. There are so many wonderful quilts (and therefore, quilters/artists) out there that it’s so difficult to choose some, but if you look at my mosaic, I think it’s fairly easy to see a pattern there, of what sorts of things I like.
Sign-ups actually start today, but that probably won’t be until tomorrow, here. I’ve only been in one quilt swap before, and I totally enjoyed it!
this was the one I made by wiccked
and this was the one I received by wiccked
This is the mosaic I made to show off my favourites, for inspiring my partner in this new swap.
I love these by wiccked
