Karen's Challenge, Rayna's Book

While looking at blogs, I came across how to  spray baste vertically.. This project is small enough... although the artist did say, she had basted a queen size piece with her husbands help. It worked beautifully.. and was easy.. not to worry about over spray.. the newspapers on the side took care of that.

All finished and bound.. (32W X 24 L) You might notice that it is up side down from the way the photos were taken previously. Color photo is more accurate in the precious photo...
Well, I started to sew the binding on and forgot to put the sleeve on.. So I turned it up side down, or right side up, which ever you want to call it. Instead of taking out stitching.. Lazy? maybe, but good abstract art should be able to be hung any which way,,, or so they say.

A close up of some of the blocks.. I used variegated thread by Superior.  And, well ok, I did not start out to sew straight lines or shall I put it another way.. up and down, and across.. I had visions of circles and lines, and... However, my machine did not want to work that way.. I had to take out lots of stitching.

.
Guess my machine was right, straight lines worked out better.. I did not fuss with really "straight" I just zipped some close together, some wide apart,, after all that is the way the pieces are also. I might add some beads... maybe this is not done. What do you think?

Thank you Karen and Rayna, this has been great fun..  I used the Challenge fabric, in it's Original state, and also dyed it in red and brown.  It was a great Challenge Fabric and started lots of "What If's".
