I took the opportunity to just play during the SWO Modern Quilt retreat.

I took some hand dyed fabric scraps and let myself just stitch.

I tried adding some very narrow inserts and loved the look.

I machine quilted using a walking foot and three different colours of thread.

I made a few more pieces during the retreat. It is really freeing just trying new techniques without having a firm outcome in mind.
