Just Let It Be

I needed to do some reorganizing
in my sewing room
after my month long sewing marathon.

There were piles of leftovers from the 
three big projects I had worked on.
You know, a little of this and a lot of that.

I had gotten most of it put away when I spied
the pile of leftovers from the fabric line
"Little Gatherings".
It was just sitting there looking as cute as ever.

I had used them in my "Jack the Ripper" quilt.
I had started with a fat quarter of 22 different fabrics
and I still had quite a bit leftover.

I could hear a voice in my head saying 
"Just Let It Be"

"Step Away from the Fabric"

"Don't Even Think About It"

But
I needed to do something with these wonderful fabrics.

New Pattern:
A Little Northwinds by Primitive Gatherings.
The finished size is only 24" x 30"
so the pieces aren't very big.
Perfect for the amounts I had left.

The half square triangles finish at 1 inch and 
the block is a 4" square.
Should be cute.

No, I really didn't have any business starting
this new project.
But I just couldn't  "Let It Be".


Until Next Time-
