Go forth and quilt you say. Yes, I know, very simple. Yet, I realized its a process mentality. I enjoy the process of selecting the fabric and the colors. Challenging my color schemes, making fabrics blend, where they were not intended... I feel a song coming on..
Color... the Final Frontier. These are the continuing voyages of the starship Quilterprise. Her ongoing mission: to explore strange new fabrics, to seek out new fabric and color forms and new combinations, to boldly go where no person has gone before.And sooooo I enjoy the process. I have these tops, I enjoy the process... Now, I am working on a love for the quilting process. For now, I get anxious when i sit to quilt a top. Unsure, when I envision what I want the finished quilt top to look like. My mission is to remove all anxiety and feelings of unsurety, and just start finishing a bunch of stuff.
In the spirit of the process pledge. See my next mental process. This was a selection that I made with a special person in mind that is not doing so great....so send forth the GGI's to ensure that I design and quilt in an expeditious manner.
The wavy yellow is the backing....I am looking at a weekend completion. Wish me luck.
Your quilt tops are lovely! I think I enjoy the process too and then loose steam in the finishing part. I have about 7 tops that need to be done.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see what you do with that fabric this weekend. I know your GGI will be in full force!
Yeah, I generally enjoy piecing more than quilting, too... the color selection is really fun, and the process of putting it together is rewarding. Quilting makes me anxious too. Yet and still, I made a great effort to finish some projects, and I have only one quilt right now that needs more quilting! And one top in progress. Not counting the one I just started... ;-)
ReplyDeleteGood luck finishing your good will project, I like envisioning happy snuggling for the intended recipient while I am making one... I hope your quilt brings warm joy to your friend.
