When you cut out the jewel shapes for the Lotus quilt, you have lots of leftover triangle pieces. These are the ones from the Lotus I cut out over the weekend. I saved all of them from the black and red Lotus, and started sewing them together as leaders/enders while making that quilt.
I have continued sewing them together as I put together the blue/brown Lotus, first into pairs, then quads and then in set of eights, just grabbing them and sewing in no particular order. So now I have to figure out what I want to do with them. I really do love to making something out of the leftovers....it's sort of like getting a bonus after you finish the quilt!
I worked on the blue/brown Lotus last night for awhile and have all the pieces sewn into the large triangles, so I am ready to sew them together.
My daughters are taking me out for my birthday tonight, so it will be fun to have some family time!
Love your leftovers! Your going to have fun making your sets into something fun!
