On Vacation!

Sorry to rub it in, but I'm away for the next few weeks.
Enjoying some sun and  a break from winter!
Leaving you with some sunny thoughts....

It's not a Quilt

But; I made this!

I don't know where the idea came from but suddenly, I needed to make this.

 

 

I used my phone to take this pic; not the greatest quality. But it really is super cute.

It's scrap fabric used as matting around a page I pulled from a magazine.

The black frame isn't the best for it, but it's what I had around....whaddaya think? 

Am I on to something? Feel free to take this idea and run with it!

And I did do work on quilts yesterday, really I did!

 - I had to take apart the shiny block quilt and re-pin baste it, the backing fabric was caught on a pin and had folded wonky. 

- I also cut and pieced a million (or so it seemed) 9inch 9 patch squares for my adapted Hawaii Sunset quilt; and um, didn't do anything on the G&P Teenager's Quilt.

But the absolute BEST part of the day was finding a solid dark wood (not sure what kind) old entertainment unit that was PERFECT for all my winter sweaters and stuff. I was looking for vintage material at the BEST thrift store ever and found this Unit for THIRTY DOLLARS!!!!!!

It was a bit stressful getting it up the stairs but we did it!

Okay. Going back down to the Quilt Cave. Got some work to do!
