Lynda, it's always a question, where to start. Some authors suggest sewing scraps together and adding them to other constructed pieces.

Here's one of a series starting with 9P.

Another interesting piece...

This thread couldn't have come at a better time, our Guild has an Improv mini quilt challenge. We are not allowed to use a pattern, but it can be crazy quilted, appliqué or pieced, or whatever combo you want. It can't be any larger than 15x15

That sounds like a lot of fun! Enjoy the process. Which is what improv is all about (for me).

Love everything about this one, especially the colors. I may have to switch my weekend quilting plans!

And I need to get an improv finished this weekend. Good plans.

We have a Challenge for our next Qyuilt Show to make a 15x15 Improv Quilt Block. Here is what I came up with.

Great! Did you start with stratta?

i just went for it.

Patchworkbarb--Very nice block!

Rob

Barb. What confidence and courage. Just go for it. The repitition of the order of the pieces is unifying to what seems random. Very nice.

Patchworkbarb, this reminds me of an accordion. It's probably not what you were intending, but very nice indeed.

Do you use an inspiration for an improv quilt?

I love all these quilts! Great thread, thanks for starting it!

Here's one of mine. I saw something similar somewhere (probably Pinterest) and it inspired me.

Bilben...a set of three that looks like one...nice..the center grouping reminded me of planet Saturn's rings...and the outer its moons....

Very nice, Bilben!

Very nice and a great idea!
