But I seriously got lost in the making of that quilt top.
I call it "Living with..." after I finished it I was able to fall asleep and when I woke up amazed at how closely it reflected my vision. So I posted a picture on Facebook and was really surprised that someone wanted to buy it!
If you will have me I would love to join your group, and possibly broaden my horizons. I want to have the fun that you all seem to have in here playing.
Thanks, Mb
Are you kidding? We'd LOVE to have you!!!! We will enjoy all your experiments good and bad so we can learn from you.
Your piece is excellent and someone with good taste has shown interest so you should delight in that. I certainly get exactly where you were coming from on that one. (Been there, done that with the migranes. Ugh! Mine went away when I hit menopause though
So keep working and showing us what you are up to. I personally can't wait until you do your next one.
My next one is on the board and I can't quite decide on it's finishing. Got some idea for the quilting of the middle --but then what? As of course subject matter and fabrics are a tad strange.
I may put it up partially done and get some feed back from everyone. Unless a midnight inspiration strikes. (One can hope.) Meantime I have three other ideas I'd like to start...always a danger for me as then none of them get completed.....
Welcome Mary Beth---would have said 'warm welcome' but you guys are too hot and I need the heat down here in the winter.
