I dream of quilting
I had a dream last night that involved me giving a quilt away. The crazy thing is, it was a really cool quilt! I made sure i stayed awake and repeated it to myself when I woke up, so that I would remember it. lol. now I can't wait to make it!
It was just a simple rag quilt style, but reinvented and combined with some layered quilting techniques, and an eye-spy theme. who knows, i probably saw it somewhere and it landed in my subconcious. but until that is proven, then I am going to give credit to the quilt dream gods!

I find quilting to be too stimulating to think about during my bouts of insomnia! During the day though, hubby can see me day dreaming into "quilt world" as I'm thinking things through...
Sometimes after a long day of quilting or planning, what is planned/worked sort of drops down in blocks like tetris pieces and I twist and turn and put them together and sometimes I find new combinations or understandings of how the blocks work. LOL, happens more than once for me on the Bonnie Hunter Mystery. Instead of visions of sugar plums, visions of HST dance before my eyes!
