My sidekick, Jeffery, thinks that sunshine is best enjoyed when laying in it.
I have not been able to be lured outside quite so easily though. I am finding that I enjoy the sunshine just as much when I am digging through the 5 boxes of vintage fabric that I have inherited.
Plenty in there that I will pass on to others, as I won't be making use of it anytime soon, some very interesting fabrics, too. I think that I am most in love with the variety of corduroy fabrics. It is my intention to incorporate more texture into my quilts this year, I find that I am getting bored with simple cotton, but I need durable. Think Gee's Bend Quilts, lots of corduroy there.
It was a bit after Christmas, but I did finish the Bargello quilt and give it to my in-laws. They were mighty happy with it, I was happy to have it finished.
This beautiful quilt, Majestic Migration, is the raffle quilt for the Quilters Guild of Dallas. While it will be going to a new home in March, I was happy to have it visit for photos when the sun was out, just enough, last week.
It is simply beautiful. I am looking forward to the quilt show in March, ummm, I just have to finish my entries to really be excited.
This summer, I'm nominating you as the publicity person for the guild...with photos!
