Ditzy prints updated

Thinking about how to start a quilt.. maybe it will turn out like what's in my head, which looks a bit like this:

hmm, what does this say about the inside of my head, I wonder? I can't think in neat diagrams, but as Picasso said 'if you know exactly what you are going to do, what would be the point of doing it?'.

I have been given lots of old fashioned small print fabric (circa 1970?). Not the style I would normally choose, and therefore a challenge.

So I have picked out all the black and dark colours and I'm planning to add bits of bright modern prints...

Can't wait to see where it will lead me!

Still waiting for a brighter day to take a 'finished' picture of the last quilt- maybe tomorrow?
