Turkey Tracks: January 4, 2021
“Pips” Top Finished
The second project for this year’s The Color Collective is all about curves and how to create them using a glue stick pen.
“Pips” are apple seeds—and this color palette is as bright and shiny as our green and red apples are.
I have no idea how I’ll quilt it, but I’ve organized backing and batting for it. I’ll probably bind it with the “limelight” green or the softer lavender “thistle.” I’m leaning toward the limelight green. I bought the walking foot instruction book WALK, and that will likely offer a solution for how to quilt this quilt. My mind is wanting curved lines that track down—and around the “Pips.”
The new project (3) is here and I’ve downloaded the pattern and watched the videos. It will involve making a freezer paper template that gets used like paper foundation piecing. And part of making the template will involve using one’s threadless sewing machine needle to mark out the sewing lines.
I always learn so much with The Color Collective projects as each introduces a new skill—or refines an older one.

Love it and how in some colors the pips pop and others they recede and the “spools” pop. Pip Pop.. maybe a name? lol
