Ok girls, I'm putting this in print so I need you all to keep me honest. I love to quilt. I love my quilt room. I love to just sit in there sometimes and just look (ok, I grope too!). Sometimes I just sit and look around, sometimes I go thru some mag's or patterns. Sometimes I look at my ufo's and sometimes I plot and plan my next adventures. Sometimes I take fabric and coordinate the colors or just go thru my fat's and touch them. Someday's I play with my jelly rolls or layer cakes and finger thru my charms.I sometimes sit down and sew up a storm or do a bunch of ironing. Usually I have the t.v. on, mostly for background noise but I will watch a mystery or two while I sew/iron too! I feel lucky and fortunate to be able to have this space to call my own and all my little goodies in there. This got me to thinking about the post(s) that I see where someone has made a donation quilt or charity quilt and it tugs at the back of my mind that I don't do any of that. I'm too blessed to be so selfish so.....I "vow" to make 3 baby/children quilts this year. Not much, but it's a start and something I feel like I can complete and not get overwhelmed by it so much that I don't enjoy the process. I will make 3 over the course of the year and donate them to our women's shelter or our "safe" house we have here in town. Now you do your part and don't let me slide ok?
