My Icesmeismographberg won the Merrily We Sew Along improv placemats!!! Excessive use of exclamation points!!!!!!! Cuz I can't help it, I'm so excited! I mean I'm on someone's blog and they're talking about me. Geeking out here. I'm so glad that Rachael at Imagine Gnats and Kelley at Casa Crafty and the gang decided to put the Sew Along together and so thankful for the sponsors. It totally sparked my imagination and ideas for new projects. !!!!!!!! (Can't help it).
It was especially nice to do improve and blue thread work because I've been working on a quilt for my niece and it's semi-precise and pink. Lots of pink. So much pink that I might put together some more monochromatic log cabin blocks a la Scrappy Stash QAL and make them into a pillow. Maybe to give away for the massive Sew Mama Sew giveaway in December. Here's a look at "Pip Pop" for my niece and the wonky pillowcase I might send over as well:
Of course now that I see the picture it gives me the urge to sew more blocks and wonky things together then cut them up, rearrange and sew back together. Again, thanks for the win and it was so much fun seeing what everyone made.

Looks great - and well done for winning with your improv placemats. I went back and checked out what you made - love it. Reminds me of a seismograph - but that could be because I live in a very earthquakey part of the world. Also, have you considered turning off comment verification? I have, and don't have issues with spam - it makes leaving comments so much easier.
