I spent last week at Kyra's house in Round Rock. We always have a great time together. And, as a bonus, I even get work done. While Kyra works (she works at home), I sew. I worked on two small projects, and finished one top. The other I finished this afternoon here at home. Here they are:
The first is Subdivisions #2. I pieced this using the color palette I chose for the Fort Worth fiber group.

I love this palette, but I'm not sure about this piece. I may need to make a second piece to see if I can do a better job. Perhaps I need a "do-over." Or as my golfing brother and father used to say, a "Mulligan."
The second piece is the piece I really needed to get done last week. And I did. This is Tuning Fork #23, which is the piece I am donating to the International Quilt Festival Silent Auction in Houston. I hope to quilt it tomorrow, and have it ready to send to Houston within the next two weeks.

Don't be sorry! I totally agree. I think what bothers me is that the colors are too evenly distributed. It needs more of a focus, with a few accents. In fact, I think I'll postpone quilting TF 22 (which is what I SHOULD be doing) and go play with this palette some more....
