One quilt is completed and I go and start another one. I ordered this and this adorable fabric designed by Laurel Burch. Once it arrived Saturday, I couldn't wait to cut into it and start piecing. I was thinking this would be another kid's quilt but I've kind of fallen in love with it. This one will stay with me. Because my camera refuses to correctly capture purple, you can't tell that the center strip of solid is, in fact, purple. I think the quilt looks pretty good, especially considering I designed it on the fly Saturday morning. It's not big enough for a bed quilt but it's plenty big enough to take a nap under. Now I have to decide what to put on the back.
I get so much done on the weekend but I seem to be a complete slug during the week. When I get home from work, I'm tired and it seems like way too much effort to drag out the sewing machine or start another knitting project. Maybe if I leave the sewing machine out all week, I'll be more inclined to put the quilt sandwich together and start quilting. I'll have to try that this week.
Wow!! This is beautiful.
