Tuesday's To-Do ~ 30 Days of Improv Week 2

 Week 2 ~ #30daysofimprovqal ~ Stripes

This week we are playing with our strips for the improv challenge.

I gathered what was left of my scraps from last week ... 

and there really were not many.

So I cut a nice pile of colorful strips of varying widths and wonkyness. 

Day 1 called for sewing strip sets by alternating directions of or stitching.

I have been doing this for strip sets for many years.

I sewed in pairs. 

Then I paired them up and sewed in the opposite direction. 

Then I pressed and sewed some more.

At the end of my sewing time, I had these strip sets 

Foe my Day 1 Block I just trimmed one down the size of my Week 1 Blocks.

I trimmed the cut-off ends, too, for another block.

I am really enjoying this improv challenge.

The free form sewing is a nice break from making the fussy sampler blocks.
