Just another typical morning ~

Whether there are clouds in morning sky or stars are in the night sky....there is always sunshine in my place.

I've made several decisions this morning to make my day even brighter.  Right off, I

• Registered for a Bookbinding Buttonhole Stitch Journal Class being taught by Bari Zaki
• Ordered Bring Me Flowers...a quilt pattern booklet by Jen Kingwell Designs
• Pre-ordered the newest line of Marcia Derse fabric:  Treasure Hunt

And earlier in the week, one improvisational style quilt top came off  the design wall and is now ready to be quilted.  It's folded so you get only snippets as a tease. 

 

What's on the design wall?  In my zeal to use up scraps in the pile, I decided that a rag quilt made with whatever size scraps were there would work just fine for me.  Now, I'm second guessing my exuberance while sewing all those mis-matched size blocks together.  What should have been a couple of hours from start to quilt finish is now languishing in its third day.  Oh, well! 

It's October 5 and the Down The Rabbit Hole border of the month is well on it's way. One tulip almost finished. Another tulip and  four big leaping rabbits to go.   Yea!

Fabric shopping yesterday found four nice pieces of combed cotton batiste in my sewing room at the end of the day.   Yes, batiste in a quilt works beautifully.  (she says)



wheat, white, corn and blue

How diverse are these activities?  Smiling, as the sun continues to shine ~
