here is a quick look at part of the project for maine quilts. no, pine trees aren't blue with shells on them, just a bit of artistic license. the plaid fabric was a volunteer gift last year from maine quilts, so it's neat that i'm using it for this year's display piece. *** up early and eager for today's enjoyment which i hope will include plenty of progress on my 3 current focus projects--autumn change, the maine quilts and prepping pinks/greens. a couple of errands will round out the day. **** not much else doing here except watching spring progress and saying goodbye to april. it's one of those days when i feel i can't sew fast enough or maybe it is just the stash inspiring me; either way, must not be deterred from current "must do" to rack up some finishes that are sorely overdue.
Looking forward to seeing the finished project. Just reading your post makes me feel like I need to get up and get something done......but instead I am going to share on my blog what I will be up to later today!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your day.
I like your artistic license results, Grace.
ReplyDeleteReally cute and so appropriate for Maine although in Belfast it seems the only shells I ever saw were periwinkle (love them) and the occasional mussel. I brought home a jar of Belfast beach sand (rocks) and periwinkle shells. If you can get to Belfast in the fall, I believe there is a quilt show in the boat house right on the beach. Pine Tree Quilters, I think. The group meets at St. Joseph's Church in Belfast.
