For weeks now I have had fabric and books spread out on the dining room table, with no luck.
So, what color is his NEW toy? What do your fabrics look like, what colors? That would help give us an idea what type inspiration to send your way. BUT... maybe FIRST you should do something for YOU! A new lap quilt for you! Maybe one to remind you of all the friends you have an many different places. Or perhaps try a new STYLE of quilting. Something you haven't attempted before. Maybe something with a theme of something you loved as child? I say whatever you do, it should be something to make YOU HAPPY! THEN, you can make him a quilt for the car shows!
Good luck in your New Adventures!
