Bauhaus Throw – Finished Version

This throw is finished at last.  At the weekend I finished sewing in the ends and then washed it and pinned it out.

This is the last square that I finished Square 6.

It has a quite regular pattern.  It is interesting when I first looked at the postcard – I didn’t see the patterns.  In each large square – the colours are like pieces of domino – eg the red and green are always next to each other wherever they are in the square – and the same for the other colours – they have a partner.  

I can’t see the pattern in Square 1, but all the others have a repeat pattern of some kind.  I did feel the urge to change the patterns – eg it seems odd to me to have the 2 Squares with the 4 cream coloured squares in the centre – next to each other.  I would have separated them, but I wanted to copy the postcard – so I did.

I still have several half-finished projects which I hope to complete over the next few weeks.
