OMG. BLISS.
I always forget how much sewing clears my mind and makes me feel better. It's so cathartic and freeing. I really need to remember to schedule some time each day to just do this.
Anyway, what did I break my no-sew-streak with? The Christmas Cactus Quilt Along! But not in either of the color ways I had originally decided on...
I know. Pretty boring so far, right? Just the brown and white... But throw in some pink and orange.
Oh, but then there's a light blue fabric with brown micro dots!
Two days, four copies of six blocks. I'm taking the tact of piecing my HSTs as I need to. That's because I just KNOW that I'll end up missing a bunch. But I do have a bunch of 2" and 3" squares stuffed in a baggie that I can pull out and sew when I'm ready to.
Neat! It's going to be a real eye-catcher!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see the finished quilt!
ReplyDeleteI love it! I knew you'd come up with something completely different for fabrics, and you didn't disappoint. Let's see, now, the next Stitch & Bitch is December 11 and the last block should be posted around November 29... no pressure!
ReplyDeleteLook forward to seeing finished quilt
ReplyDeleteI like the colour combinations you used.
