Just Playing

I spent Monday just playing around with fabrics in my studio.  It was rather fun.

Today I will be hanging out in the waiting room for several hours while my father-in-law has his "procedure".  I really don't mind as I've done it before.  However, I'm thinking of all the sewing time I will miss.

I thought it would be fun to try a little hand quilting while I am waiting.  I played around with some solid fabrics and came up with this "liberated" log cabin block.  This will be my play/practice piece.  Any suggestions on threads (color or type) or stitching?

One square has been sewn on all 101 of my siggy blocks.

Here is a sneak peak of another project I am working on that came about playing with fabric.  Do you think the blue or the pink works best for the binding?  I look forward to your suggestions.

Have an amazing day!
