Modern Mini Quilt swap
#123
Sign me up!!!!!! (Just sent pm) Have been collecting several books on this technique and this is just the catalyst I need to jump in and try it! I'm a pattern junkie -- I accummulate all sorts of pattern books which I just drool over and mark up and label pages .... then they go into the "to do" pile with all the others until I get the incentive to take action. Sometimes I get as much fun looking over and reading patterns as I do actually making the item. Like cookbooks -- I collect them, read them, drool, then stash them away since I "gave up" cooking and the stuff I'd like to make and eat would probably kill me. Life is unfair ... and way too short.

I have my idea rolling in my head, found some fabric to work with, just need the mental to fall into line and I will have it done. Oh, yeah, need a name anyway so get a couple more days to get started to see if what I have in mind will work. This is fun because it can be on the abstract side of things. Taking a simple shape and creating with it.

oh help me! There is a reason I don't sign up for swaps...I get sooo worried about what the other person/the whole group would think. I tend to be a chronic over-achiever (not with housework though, go figure) and can never just "keep it simple stupid." Time to change gears and do a little rethinking. (I was working on idea #4...which involved over 100 pieces...yeah, like that will happen on a 12 inch quilt and with 3 little kiddos.)
off to check out the modern quilt guild again for more simple inspiration.
