The idea took root, and fabrics lay on the worktable all week while Life took over - frustrating! -

The small triangular bit fell onto the background - happy accident - and needed another for the other bit. The background is leftovers of some chintz that was used for cutting bias strips. (I love using up leftovers....)
Here's the back - again I've cut up the batting and used it as a "template" for the piecing.

You're being incredibly productive at the moment Margaret. Are you on something?! (vbg)
The Hot Dots is (are?) fantastic. What a great experiment in color.
I too have noticed your hyper-creativity as of late. Great little projects and a great role model for us to just get with it!
These are almost like journal quilts - except you're not restricting yourself to the size of a page.
