    Whenever i feel stressed and don't want to sit behind the sewing machine but still want to feel accomplishing something i do hand work...it is so relaxing (i call it therapy sessions). This time i decided to start this for myself...yes that's right it will be my quilt. I have been quilting for 1 1/2 year and i still don't have one. How sad is that :-(
    Hopefully 2-3 weeks from now i will have one to cuddle with.

    This is the pattern i am making but i will modify a bit

    Looks great. Only 1 1/2 years quilting and you can do that! That's wonderful.

    Great blocks. I love the combo of "old" and "new" in this quilt. It's going to look great finished, and I'm sure you're going to enjoy it.
