Progress
Here's the layout of my Cranberry Chutney quilt. It hardly looks like cranberry let alone chutney. I need a new name. The photo is not great. The blues are pretty accurate, but you can't see the warm beige of the contrasting blocks. Ah well.
I now have 2 rows sewn together. It goes very quickly since I don't have to match anything except for the points of the block.
Now what to make next?

It's amazing what a photograph can do
I am playing with the layout for this new quilt. I'm using my bed with the flannel duvet so that the blocks don't slip (and also because it's easier on my back than the floor). But even when I stand back, I really can't get the effect of how those blocks interact with each other. Enter the camera.
This might end up as my final layout. I do love how I get secondary and even tertiary block interactions. And now, looking at it, I can see a mistake in the top row. No matter; nothing is sewn together. Clearly my seam ripper and I will become close friends if I go this route. I'm a knitter and knitters rip, so no big deal.
