I just have these scraps that I am using and what I try to do is contrast, light next to dark, while using the same fabric. I might do like Daffy did with some of the H's if I happen to spy a couple fabric that would work.
It is 12.24 pm here now and I am going to start on it again, I am listening to, A Game of Thrones, on my kindle while I sew. Hopefully I can get a bunch of area blocks done today. I will post the pics later.
At the time I made Hendrix Charm, a charm quilt was defined as one in which each fabric was used only once. It contains 411 fabrics, including those in the partial Hs at the edges. Some of the patches were from my Keepsake Quilting swatches.
I have begun a T quillow for our 18-year-old granddaughter. The only way I can figure out to make the Ts tessellate/interlock is to put half of them upside down. Come to think of it, some of those Hs could be upside down too.
Game of Thrones--wow, what a series. We have just begun Season 2 with our Netflix subscription. I'm going to have to read the books.
