ahhhh..
a good night's sleep in my own bed, the sealy posturepedic extra firm, thank you, which is about as good as it gets in my book. **** i've posted a photo of my blocks so far, the good ones, and i'm anxious to pull out the machine today to make more. though it's tame compared to some design-wise, i had a reason for that. i used white and avoided the sashing in order to hand quilt, using open spaces for patterns. i wanted the batik colors to pop once it's quilted. we'll see if that works or not. i might also dig out those plaids i've been saving and cut some strips or squares for a new project.....

I'm so glad that you had such a stimulating and fun time Grace. I read your post on Stashbusters and I could imagine the feeling. You've got to feel sorry for people who need chemicals to get a high like that, don't you?

ReplyDeleteJust went through your blog a bit....love your quilts....and this Pineapple Blossom will be gorgeous with hand quilting in the white areas. Lovely!
