“Skyscrapers” Finished–from the March Project
I finished the first three tops in my 30 quilts for the month of March project and took them to the framers a couple of weeks ago–they’re back now and I couldn’t wait to start sharing them! I decided not to quilt them in the order they were created for a variety of reasons, so…

Thoughts on March Project
First 10 Days of March Cindy Grisdela 2011 Well, it took me longer than I had planned to get back to my thoughts about my 30 days of quilt tops for the month of March project. I had quite a few things to get caught up on! I don’t think I realized, fortunately, what a…
“Walk in the Park” is Day 30–the Project is Finished!
I did it! “Walk in the Park” is Day 30 of my 30 art quilts for the month of March project. When I started this project back on March 1, I must admit I wasn’t completely sure whether I’d be able to do it all in one month. Life got in the way and I…
“Townhouses” is Day 29 – Almost Finished!
Well–it’s March 31 and “Townhouses” is the next to last top in my 30 art quilts for the month of March project! I have one more top to make today and then the project will be finished. I’m quite proud of this accomplishment! This piece went through several incarnations–I originally thought I would make separate…
“Assorted Marbles” is Day 28
“Assorted Marbles” is Day 28 of my art quilt a day for the month of March project. I’m really looking forward to seeing all of the Marbles pieces hung together! There’s a great deal of unity in the simplicity of the designs and the strong colors–I think they work as a series best of the…
“Passages” is Day 27
“Passages” is Day 27 of my art quilt a day project for the month of March. This is a very different design from most of the rest–you might notice that I started with the leftover wonky stripes from yesterday’s block. I like the way the bright bits of color move through the space. I can…
“Courtyard” is Day 26
“Courtyard” is Day 26 of my art quilt a day project for the month of March. It’s getting down to the end! I decided to try some different colors in this one–it turned out darker than I would have liked, but the design was interesting to create. The mustard colored fabric is a little tricky…
“Around the Block” is Day 25
“Around the Block” is Day 25 of my art quilt a day project for the month of March. This is actually the piece that just didn’t gel from a few days ago. After a few days’ perspective, I reworked it and I’m happier with it now. One of the issues I’ve encountered during this project…
