Oh, what to do?!

Quilting is pretty therapeutic for me. It's just you, the quilt and the machine. Once I get into a rhythm my  mind just works through whatever is upsetting to me. I was pretty upset on Friday because I wasn't sure if I would be able to go to work on Monday due to the government budget crises. So I was able to get one huge 6 hour quilting session in this Friday evening. M and P just left me be and I quilted until my fingers bled... just kidding. But here it is...



Isn't it beautiful?! This quilt is going on the bed in the guest bedroom. 

I love this fabric line from Tanya Whelan. And I think I have the perfect excuse to order some more fabric from this line since I have two twin size beds in the guest room and I need a quilt for the other bed. I picked the pattern out last night but more on that later :-)

There is one more thing... I have lots of little half squares left over from this beauty. 



I would like to make a pillow cover. But I am not sure which pattern to pick. So I took photos from each one and I hope that by looking at them that way, one will jump out at me yelling "Pick me! Pick me!"








Which one would you pick?

Today is such a beautiful day. M and P worked together to put up the trampoline. It was wonderful to hear their teasing banter and almost no argument at all ;-)




I also made lots of pictures from the car on the way home from the commissary. 



Look, the tree blossoms are out. I love spring!




Take care,
Me

  1. I would pick #1 or #4. I like #4 a little bit better. :)
