As promised, the back of the fish quilt. Featuring an indigo dyed piece I did at the huddle, print experiments from figuring out what to do on the front of the quilt, and a pieced block by my friend Melissa.

Improv quilt - all the blocks so far as arranged by the 11 yo because it’s basically a big felt board.

More blocks for the improv quilt! I’m way more productive with the little design wall I made a few weeks back.

Some Sunday checkerboards for my improv quilt. Ironed a few other I had already done also.
Small brown flowers was once on a folding screen my mom bought at a garage sale when I was a kid.

Be inefficient! I really liked playing over the top of this pieced block.
What’s your favorite inefficient thing to do? Chop garlic by hand? Knit? Read slowly?

Visiting one of my little quilts #ilovetext #improvpiecing #greenmakesmehappy
not sure exactly where these are, exactly, but They Must Be Made. So far the tunnel imagery seems to fit the mood. They are part of a larger quilt with other improv style blocks, all hand stitched. The brown rectangles are leftover from mask making. #quilting #handstitching #improvpiecing
2 January Beesewcial blocks for Leanne @shecanquilt.bsky.social #modernquilt #improvpiecing #quilt #quiltsky
What do you do with *your* scraps?
I #sew mine into fat quarter sized improv color blocks.
This start of a new project I’ll work on in between other deadlines. I have a vision for it that I’m excited to execute: I love #improvpiecing because the joy is in the journey!

Anyone else use improv as a creativity reset?

Off you go! The Ex X’s is on her way to Road to California. If you get to go I’d love a photo. The quilt was so big I couldn’t photograph it myself without it touching the grass!! Made with the amazing quilters of Beesewcial. #quilt #quiltsky #modernquilt #improvpiecing #insetcircles #maker
