Revisiting.....Radioactive

Do you remember these pieces?


which became these.....

Radioactive block

They are the leftover pieces from my 

Summer Stars quilt...


I decided it was time to do something with them.....


I found some homespun fabric hiding in my stash!



So I am joining them with black sashing, 

about 3/4" wide.....


I think there may be some set-in seams yet to be 

tackled....


But I have, so far, enjoyed the unhurried pace and 

chance to play!

Besides, the sun was shining this weekend and I'm 

back on my bike after a cold, wet winter!

What have you been doing this weekend?

Happy days!

I just love to see creative people use their scraps. I really am no good at this type of creating. Glad you can get out in the sun again. I'm still trying to stay out of it.
