Quilting is my new obsession. I thought about quilting all day long. Every time I walked into my bedroom and saw my block I got excited. I just wanted to keep working on it, and if I had a sewing machine that is what I would be doing right now. I am excited that I am on a sabbatical. More time to sew, bike, exercise and be creative. Hopefully one day I will be so good at quilting I'll be able to do my own patterns, and actually finish this idea I had over a year ago:
I think a desert scene would make the coolest quilt (see another sketch here).
Quilting just encompasses everything I love: math, color, fabric, creativity, precision, ironing... it's the perfect hobby.
You just wanted to show off your batman notebook. Didn't you?
ReplyDeletewhere did you get that.
get me one.
Great block! It's been years since I began quilting, but I still feel that same excitement each time I start a new project, and sometimes the love and joy just overflows onto everything around me. =) Hope you get a machine soon.
ReplyDeleteandie and mom got it for me! I'll try and find you one.
ReplyDeleteGrandma Pack likes the Quilting Cottage. You and Grandma should quilt together. She'll let you use her sewing room and she would be so proud. Then she wouldn't have to be disappointed in the rest of us lazy no-goods who don't quilt.
ReplyDeleteIf you make that rad desert quilt I want to see it.
