Separation of Church and State - A Work in Progress

The improv bug has definitely hit. That paired with overflowing scrap bins made doing some improv piecing a good idea this week. I separated my scraps into two piles -- brights and tones. This is what I did with some of the tones.

It's a puzzle:


Added a grey stripe and the improv pieces felt done:


Then I had a thought to add a border to showcase the quilting I had in mind. Also the border would help contain the busyness of the improv piecing.

Trying out some greys:


And then some Essex linen:


In the end, I switched out the grey for natural Essex linen and there it was -- Separation of Church and State.


I'll let you decide which section is which. Any guesses? ;)

Hope you are having a wonderful weekend!
