what I've been up to

Question

Someone asked me if I've been doing any quilting. When I first left I was working on this pattern - >

But then for 3 or 4 week I just couldn't work on anything. Then I made a few small quilt tops just for fun with the scrap basket. Then nothing again. Flat on my face. Last week I started thread basting those small tops for hand quilting, getting ready for a larger project I have coming up. I have also been back at hand quilting of an evening for awhile. Life is returning! I'm going to be very careful about getting back to a regular schedule though. I want to make sure I'm in the long-term-doing-better stage.

What have you all been up to?

>   That is a great pattern.  One of those on my 'someday' list.  How well did it go together for you?  I am so glad you are doing better.  Not sure there is a 'regular' in life.  That seems to be a fluid thing.Lots of garden spring cleaning going on here.  I am finishing up a simple top of all hoffman type florals.  It has been an easy projectsthat has been pretty fun to work with.  Next up is ring bearer pillowfor a wedding.  Kind of a fun thing.Don't be over doing it.  Take care.Hugs, Taria

One of my favorite designs! Is yours batik too? That's so lovely!There's something about scrap quilts in times of stress. Doing onejust makes you feel in control. I'm just making scrap blocks thesedays, and really need to ask myself what stressful thing I'm ignoring!Roberta in D, Queen of the Scrap Heap
