After deliberating on whether this line of fabric was a good choice for my Harriet's Journey Sampler, I decided to forego using it for this quilt project. I love both the fabric and the sampler, but I did not feel the two combined was not lending justice to either one.
So I jumped in and made a granny square block, which I enjoy sewing. In the back of my mind, this is what I had originally intended to do with this roll of fabric. Pleased with the color combination, I did another block.
And another... I'm enjoying the random scrappy look of each one, yet unified by the line of fabric.
What did I learn? When selecting a fabric line, make sure the scale of the prints are best suited for the quilt project at hand. And, if the 'love" in how it's turning out isn't being felt, then change it. This pastime is to be enjoyed and loved.
Until next time, Happy Quilting!
