Look what I won over at Silver Thimble Talk!! I was so thrilled to have an autographed book by Pat. I have always loved her work.
She also sent an I-tunes card……. Thanks sooooooooooooooooo much Pat!!!
What a fabulous book, I am just showing you two of my most favorite. You know I had to hone in on the applique.
In fact I was trying to decide if I had enough neutral fabrics to do this pattern (I was wondering if the bejeweled owned any neutrals). Even wondering
if I know what a neutral is. You all know I love bright and flashy. So I was going around looking in all the nooks and crannies….when a lightening bolt
hit me…… BARB…..YOU DO NOT NEED TO START ONE MORE PROJECT!!!! GET SOME OF YOUR PROJECTS DONE!!! THEN START A NEW ONE!!! STEP AWAY
FROM THE FABRICS…..BACK UP SLOWLY AND WALK OUT OF THE FABRIC ROOM.
So I did…but oh….it is so hard not to do this basket one….so if I cave, it will be a good cave.
Here is a view of the free motion hearts I did on the back of the patch one.
Here are the two quilts that my mother and Sister Beverly started (they made the tops and my mother started stitching in the ditch in the
princess one). I finished quilting both and today finished the binding…..I will have to confess, the binding has been on for over a week just
waiting for me to sew it to the back side. Why did I put it off? It only took about 15 minutes each at the most to machine sew it down….why do
I do this? Put things off?
