I seriously hope I haven't bored you to tears yet over my job transition. I just couldn't help but show you the modern cross quilt now hanging in my office {see
here and
here}. The week has gone well - my replacement is adjusting nicely, coworkers are finding me, my cross quilt has only been called a blanket once
(ouch), and I finally have a phone that works (good news, bad news!). A few of you have asked if I've hung any other quilts, and the answer is
yes!
You'll notice
QWERTY there by my nameplate, and straight ahead is
Sister Pairs, which I blogged about
here. I'll show it off again since you haven't seen it in a while . . .
Sadly, it had been folded up in a pile of quilts for a few months, but now has found a happy home in my office, seen from clear down the hallway as people approach.
Anyway, thanks for sharing this step in my journey. It's meant alot to have you alongside.
Meanwhile, I finally got into the sewing room last night and was able to finish up my March bee blocks. First, some butterflies for Des for
do.Good Stitches Faith Circle's current project.
(tutorial found at Mrs. Schmenkman Quilts)
And this month for the
Modern Blocks Bee, Krista/
kritta22 send us solid black and light blue fabric, and told us we could choose any block in the book to make for her, and were free to add blue prints from our stash! She was so generous with the fabrics she sent, that I was able to make two blocks for her . . .
The first is
Blue Lagoon by
Pat Sloan; the second is
Fussy Cut by
Susanne Woods.
Whew! What a relief to get these done, and also fun to try new blocks from
Modern Blocks.
