It sure felt good to feel like my old self yesterday! I did chores and cleaning and filled the bird feeders. I cut some the last log up and took care of that and even cleaned up the sawdust! I was anxious to get inside and do some sewing! I finally stitched the borders on the r/w/b quilt and ordered fabric for a backing for it; I can't load it on the frame until I get that backing! See that blank design wall? That doesn't happen very often but I was excited to do some piecing and fill it with a new top.
I cut up a jelly roll and some contrasting strips for the new rendition of the Contessa pattern by Barbara Groves for Moda.
And I even pieced one block before it was time to fold a load of laundry! A good day indeed!
You can guess what I will be doing today!
That’s a gorgeous collection of fabric!
ReplyDeleteWhat a productive day!!
ReplyDeleteGood to hear you are feeling well. You certainly got a lot done. Take care.
ReplyDeleteThose moments of feeling well are magnificent, aren't they?
ReplyDeleteYou sure did a LOT! Don't overdo though and be back to square one. Ask me how I know that happens! That block is beautiful. The colors look like spring to me and I can use that with all of the white around here.

Ohhh I Like this version - those are GREAT fabrics!!!
ReplyDeleteIroning???? LOL Whatever it is you do, I hope it is more fun than ironing.
ReplyDeleteYou are just amazing!! Wow!
ReplyDeleteLove the color scheme!!! Can't wait to see it progress. Hope you are feeling as normal as possible.
ReplyDeleteYou really have quite the amazing set up for quilting, etc. I didn't know you were such a multi-talented person! I love the colors in this. I am glad you are able to do these things. I never learned how to quilt or crochet or knit, and my sewing is minimal. I don't have a good sewing machine anymore, so I get very frustrated whenever I try to do anything. I will just admire the beauty of the things you do!! Thanks for sharing.
