    When I am stressed, I have to do something...so instead of eating way too much chocolate...I made a new jacket for myself.
    It is a sweatshirt jacket made with 2" squares. The purple is an old Daisy Kingdom, the other is a batik. Then I practiced making some flowers with free motion quilting.
    This was made while Mom has been in the hospital this time. (Nervous energy)

    This is beautiful. And sewing is so much better than overeating. Nice job.

    Looking good! I love the colors and the quilting, too. I could use that - it's cold here today.
