When the strips were cut into blocks, there were some leftover 6" lengths left over. I sewed them together in pairs, and added some more scraps in a design inspired by my kitchen floor: I think I have the beginnings of a mini-quilt! A perfect chance to figure out how this quilting business works before I try it on the big one.
I've been an avid knitter for many years, and from time to time I make forays into other fiber arts: crochet, sewing, traditional Greek embroidery, and now quilting! Who knows what I will get up to next. My fiber adventures keep me sane as I wend my way through grad school, trying to make a difference in the land of cancer research. It's wonderful to be a part of the community of scientific fiber artists and the crafting world as a whole.
