But I like the spiky sawtooth, also. It's nice to make a decision, at least then youknow what direction you're going. I know just what you mean about the extra time and sometimes "wasted" time spent on liberated quilting. But like Lori says, it's really learning time.<br /><br />I'm working on an old liberated UFO myself, and it's kind of frustrating, but soon will be done.Carol E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02741550863747328734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5130278599310836049.post-70892227240549271952011-04-14T07:54:51.247-04:002011-04-14T07:54:51.247-04:00ditto what everyone else said. love the quilt. wha...ditto what everyone else said. love the quilt. what about just a solid corner out of a black and white fabric?

Mom and baby are sure ...The baby quilt is darling! Mom and baby are sure to love it.<br /><br />Yes, liberated quiltmaking is definitely tougher than following a pattern. Although I can't seem to follow a pattern anymore LOL. But, like everyone else here is saying, it's making a unique-to-you quilt and SO worth it! I like the spiky triangles and corner stars idea. Futzing like that is not wasting time, it's trying and learning and allowing yourself to play, which every artist needs. You can always use the "extra parts" on the back or in something else. You have a Parts Department now!Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07498453213057487052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5130278599310836049.post-91591480492342420642011-04-11T15:20:47.343-04:002011-04-11T15:20:47.343-04:00Any time spent with fabric is NOT wasted time!
Wh...Any time spent with fabric is NOT wasted time!<br /><br />Why not incorporate the leftover orphan bits into the back of the quilt? Scrappy backs go SO well with liberated flimsies.<br /><br />p.s. I agree that liberated work can take more thought than blindly following a pattern. But in the end, the results are SO worth the extra effort (at least for me). <br /><br />Hang in there!Quiltdivajuliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15593385265961892847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5130278599310836049.post-59665560530581148562011-04-10T17:28:20.486-04:002011-04-10T17:28:20.486-04:00Right on--liberated--just go for it.
