probably, but there are just soooo many things that tweak my quilty muse...for instance, saw a christmas tree flimsy done with scraps (of course) that just had to try. before you can say "hello betty," i'm at the machine with some stash pieces....leading to these
can definitely see this becoming a new christmas quilt. i had planned one using the christmas cracker pattern but liking these trees a whole lot more. plus they work up so darn quick. even with my abbreviated sewing time, was able to make these four pretty fast. these aren't exactly like the top i saw, but they're my version and i'm happy with them. *** busy weekend that included that dreamy shower and some laundry, new post-surgery tasks for me. weary of baby steps progress but that's how it goes. each PT session finds me walking further but still requiring that daily nap to recoup. managed to put up a few christmas decorations today too. tomorrow might even manage to put away halloween stuff!
I like your trees veru much. Also, the plaid diamonds on a previous post. I have a large stash of plaids, and I think I'll make some of those diamonds. Thanks for linking to Design Wall Mondays.

Your Christmas trees are so cute! It sure will be a beautiful quilt!
ReplyDeleteThese are like the little trees on Temecula's blog today. I was really tempted by those, too, but think maybe I have enough trees already in the works. :)
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you are progressing, Grace. It is hard to be restricted for long--especially when you are feeling better, but still advised to go slowly.
LOL Putting Halloween away would be a good thing.
It is what my dear friend Kathryn calls "the creative flea" inside us. Yes we should be working on other things, but sometimes we just need to start something new! Love the trees.
ReplyDeleteit's the one vice left to me now that i cannot taste any food anymore....nasty drugs

ReplyDeleteThe trees are such fun! (And I like the "ornament" quilt in your blog header.)
