Do you guys ever think of the perfect idea for a quilt while laying in bed about to fall asleep?
A friend of mine just found out that her baby will be a boy, and her hubby is all into old tractors. While i was laying in bed last night I envisioned a white quilt with light gray tractors alternation a light green and blue wheels and steering wheel on each block. Sounds crazy, but the perfect pattern came to me. Now I just need to find the fabric in my dreams or I will be dissappointed. |
The best ideas come to me too as I am drifting off to sleep :D:D:D
I hope you are sucessful in finding the perfect fabric!!! |
yes, that will be a cool tractor quilt,
when I am drifting off to sleep I think of cool ideas, sometimes I hurry and write them down so I don't forget and also I have dreams about quilting |
I do that. I normally keep a notebook close at hand at night just for that! :)
|
Yes, I do the same thing & have a spiral bound notebook on my nightstand just in case! Good luck in finding that perfect fabric!!
|
On nights when I've stayed out late with my quilting buddies, or quilted all night, I'll sometimes have quilting dreams all night. Those are the BEST! I hate to wake up!
|
I think that's when I do my best designing! All is quiet, nothing competing for my attention. The problem is that I don't sleep, if I am designing! Many nights I am awake until 2am, because I can't turn my ideas off.
|
When I have trouble falling asleep (busy day at work, stressed out, etc), I find that if I let my mind drift about quilting helps me fall asleep. I have planned several quilts this way. Now, if I could just not have to work, then I could stay up all nite and actually make these quilts!
|
Oh yes! Best ideas when drifting off to sleep! Love your dread about the tractor, can't wait to see it!
|
Oooooooooops love your DREAM about the tractor...sorry got excited too ;-)
