After I, for one, truly believed summer has finally arrived
to our part of the world, we got hit by a cold front last Tuesday and by
Wednesday I had to go digging in the guestroom cupboard for my stashed winters’
clothes. Then literally less than a week
later, we had a heat wave. Really awful!
Hubby went on a business trip and slept out one evening and
I had one of my own quilts loaded on the frame but had brain freeze with this
one and simply couldn’t decide how to quilt it.
I then remembered a quilter once said that occasionally when she
struggles with making a choice, she takes her inspiration from the fabric and
looking at my darker fabric this is what I did.
Heaps and heaps of pebbles with a little straight lines in other areas.
A while back I invested in an Isacord thread cabinet, filled
to the brim and I love to have all these choices however sadly I haven’t had
the opportunity to use many of the pretty colours available but I am sure I’ll
get there.
My big kids treated me to a scalp, neck and décolletage
massage along with a facial and gosh was I lazy to get going after this
treatment? However one section at a time
and another quilt gets done.
The younger kids took us out for supper one night, so having
had kids finally pays off! Love the
spoils that come with the territory.
I bought HQ circle templates for my frame but
the hole left to slide over the ruler foot on my machine was just too
small. Grateful for a handy husband who
was able to fix these for me.
