A Work in Progress

I love fabric. I love to sew and quilt. But finding the time, and motivation isn't always the easiest for me to do.

I'll start a project, but stop part way through and put it aside and pick up something new. I get bored easily I guess.

4, (yes, 4) years ago I picked up the material to make a beautiful blue and white quilt. At the time it was going to be made for a wedding gift, but the detail involved made me realize that was very impractical, and it would never get finished in time. I cut most of the pieces, or at least a good portion of them, and put everything together in a box and put it aside.

A few months ago I pulled out the box and was looking at all the beautiful fabrics and got motivated again, for awhile anyway.

Here is one finished block... and a stack of neatly piled pieces waiting to be sewn into more pretty finished blocks...





I've lost it again, the motivation I mean. So the piles are neatly sitting by my sewing machine waiting to be joined together. I'll get to them, when the time is right. I don't know who's home this quilt will end up in, but after the years I have put into it, it may come live with me.
