Monday, September 13,2010...Year 2...Blog 74...Day 429 of 4,014

Oh Dear!!!

Nine days since I last blogged....

where does the time go... assorted "life happens" stuff taking up time...but also

time for quilting....

and this morning finishing a small (approximately 20x24 inch) wall hanging..made with truely "strange" Japanese themed fabric......

Pictures of both men and women in "OLD" style kimonos...this is ANOTHER time when I ask myself:

WHY???? WHY??? did I ever think this fabric was wonderful????

Well..finally..now according to "plan" this fabric has been made into an acceptable wall hanging....and just maybe someone WILL think it is interesting..if not wonderful...and pay?????$ for it..

I can hope...

So that is the up-date...

What else but....EVER ONWARD!!!

HAPPY QUILTING

For the record..AND my remembering..

A very very productive week.

Discovered in a quilting magazine two weeks ago and very simple block..but with potential for dramatic impact...

So this week...Monday, August 30th through Friday, September 3rd I have diligently quilted, quilted ,quilted using this design....and have completed the tops for FOUR outstanding wall hangings...

...actually using to zero..some of the "special"fabric bought for the classes with Kaffe Fassett in Hawaii in February 2009...that I had dispaired of ever finding the "right" design......and also "stash" fabric..bought ???? for reasons now lost to my memory.

This kind of quilting takes luck and patience--patience..patience...

...and both happened this week...

Labor Day weekend...and I will take a break from sewing...

and AGAIN...."organize" the various scraps and stash..so that I CAN progress in an orderly fashion.

The Craft Fair inventory grows...

Yes!!! I AM a HAPPY QUILTER
