Sewing team!

This fall a bunch of the printmaking girls are getting together to make quilts! We are all making City Scapes! Everyone is getting their fabric ready now so we can get started when we are all back together. To tell you the complete truth... it will be the first quilt that I have ever really made. My Mom just makes them so well I never really had to. Now that she is so busy, and I am needing a new quilt, its time I learned a thing or two about a thing or two.

I had an Ah-Ha moment the other day. It might sound silly but, I was thinking of the significance of a quilt. I make things all the time. Most of them have no actual use, they are just cute or pretty or comforting to have around, the most useful thing I make are my books, but everything else is just to look at. So, a quilt... something that you put all this time and effort and love into, and It serves a purpose! WOWOWOW. I know it might sound dumb, but it really hit me. I love the quilt that my Mom made for me so much, I take it every where with me (except recently, as all its traveling is taking its toll) I don't think I could love that quilt more...but how much will I love my own quilt?! Love is so crazy

To find Michael Miller Mirror Ball Dots, we went to Christa Quilts! She has the best selection and great prices! Quick service to boot. We were really happy with them.
