This isn't a happy dance about finishing a project (which would be a BIG HD), but rather a "happy feet" moment about a reunion. As do most of you, I have waaaay to many projects in my rotation. And others pop up - an ornament for so-and-so, a bookmark for so-and-so, this design just "called" me, etc. - so I put aside the big sampler I'm doing for myself for months at a time. And *finally* I finished the other project I had a deadline for, and promised myself I'd pick up my big silk/linen "for ME" piece.
Isn't that a glorious feeling? Playing with color and texture - it's almost hedonistic - and it's all FOR ME, both the pleasure of playing
*and* the eventual result. So I've spent the past two nights luxuriating in it!
And knowing it won't last - it's a big piece, and I won't stick with it all the way to the end without interspersing other pieces - makes this little patch all the more pleasurable, and in a week or two I'll pick up the next piece and lay this one aside, with some anticipation of capturing this wonderful feeling again!
So do any of you have a "dessert" piece like this? The one that's the cherry on top?
