A little math....

Okay!!! A little math today!!!

This.....
freezer paper pieced strips
plus this (it really is white fabric in bad light!)....


equals this.....
color wheel so far..
But the equation isn't quite right yet!!!!

This....

color wheel so far..

plus a whole bunch of these....

Hmmmm....

equals this....
Hmmmm... (again!)

(amazing how things multiply!!!) but we are still not quite there!!!!!

With a bunch of ironing and stitching added to the equation, we get this....
I like the way the sun hit the quilt sitting on my sewing table
add it to a load of laundry and.....

voila!!!!!
DQS6 done!
DQS6 (aka doll quilt swap #6) quiltie is done....
DQS6 done!
and ready to post!!! Wonder where it is headed!??

Now I can add this "color wheel plus" to my other previous doll quilt swap quilties..

DQS5
doll quilt 5 done!!!

and DQS4
The front of doll quilt for swap III

One project down.... many more to go!!!!

    That looks SO pretty! You did a great job. (It looks like it was difficult, too!)

    I love the color wheel (I always love colors organized into a rainbow) but I am LOVING your execution. The black/white fabric is just the thing. Love it.

    Hey Lisa!

    Yes, something green themed for a print would certainly be appropriate for this time of the year. I am happy to report that we finally have some crocuses appearing in the yard!

    Congratulations on all your beautiful creations - I'm deeply envious of anyone who can sew!
