BEEN AWHILE

Now that I've got that fabric book out of my system...

I'm plugging along with some of my older pictures.

I took the plunge and quilted Claire Bear's quilt!

Actually did that before we went on vacation.

After all was said and done...

it was a lot of fun!

I tried out all kinds of free motion stitches...

and LOVE the way it turned out.

Now WHY was I so scared of doing this?!?

Beats me!

I usually plunge in with art and don't worry too much about the end result...

so I've learned that lesson all over again.

JUST DO IT!

Even though I'm not finished with it...

still...

I am about to be!!!

I actually began hand sewing the binding down yesterday at my Colombian Quilt Group meeting.

Woo Hoo!

So it won't be long now...

before Claire will have her annie! grandma quilt...

which she totally doesn't need...

because the temps NEVER go below 75 here...

even at night...

in the winter.

Saying that makes me miss those cool South Florida temps.

Create Your Life,

annie!

PS (Since I paint with thread - sort of - I'm linking to Paint Party Friday).(And...Sophia and I did paint on it - sort of - with fabric markers). I'm also linking to a new-to-me blog hop...W.i.P. Wednesday at Freshly Pieced.
