It’s been a while since I last posted about my progress on Brenda Gael Smith’s #dreamlines2023 project. Brenda has been sending a new improv pieced strip pattern each month to the folks who signed up in January to do her Dreamlines Project.

There are just two more designs before we begin to assemble our strips into a quilt. Since the patterns are released on the first of the month, I expect I will sew up my quilt sometime during October. She offered two sizes of strips, and I chose the large version. It looks like it will work up to be a lap size quilt.

I pulled a selection of bold primary color solids in January but last month started to run out of sections that were long enough to complete the strips. So I’ve added some lighter colors and I think it’s turning out to be a happy accident (necessity)!

I have two strips sections of most of the patterns shown above, and the ones not shown are sometimes made with a different combination of colors.

This finished quilt is sure to be interesting!
