I made my son's art teacher a Mondrian inspired apron (https://www.reddeliciouslife.com/2015/09/an-exercise-in-improv.html) but it was put together so quickly, I wish I had done it differently. I didn't have the time to figure out where/how to place the black lines since I was trying to get it done in a day.

At first glance they look like they would be such a simple project. You did an excellent job with this.

I considered making a quilt a few years ago after I saw a Mondrian jigsaw puzzle in a store. But it never happened so I’m glad you took it on. It’s interesting to me that you found it challenging to re-create in fabric—deceptively simple artwork.JanineMariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13475847392355523001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4580965803850912868.post-99083047371998222018-04-06T14:19:36.021-05:002018-04-06T14:19:36.021-05:00Hi Jayne,
