On this blog the members of Sky-is-the-Limit group show the results of the challenge quilts they make. We started with each quarter a new theme, but have changed this to a monthly theme. Knowing that life can interfere with good intentions it is not compulsary to make a quilt each month, but at least 4 quilts per year should be doable. Every quilt measures 12"x12".

No idea of a title
I can not think of title
I wanted to try inserting very thin strips after reading about the technique. I was not very successful as they vary in width. However since finishing this piece I went back and reread the explanation and had another much more successful go at it on a 6 inch square.
I chose the swan fabric which was a batik I overdyed to represent a peaceful environment. The inserted strips were to represent us breaking up/polluting the environment. These strips were a striped fabric that I also overdyed. I have produced an unexciting piece but I learnt a lot doing it.
