It has been a busy, stressful few weeks, and I have had little time to go to my studio and play! But, I have finally gotten to do that. This week, my hubby and I both had some kind of bug, and we both stayed home from work on Monday, and part of Tuesday. Today, I went to the office, but came home at lunch and slept all afternoon. I really feel much better tonight!
I am quilting a really pretty quilt for a friend and made some progress tonight. It is a queen size quilt top, and is going to take longer than I thought it would. I am quilting it freehand using one of Dawn Ramirez 's (the Pajama Quilter!) designs. She made it look so easy in her video, and I used it in my Mystery Quilt on the piano key border. It is fun and very forgiving.
It should be finished by this weekend.
I'm also working on a Raggedy Ann and Andy redwork quilt designed by Kaaren Johnston of The Painted Quilt blog. It is so cute, and is a great stash buster quilt! The first block is finished and I have block 2 and 3 in progress. It will make a really cute baby quilt!
Spring came for a few days, and then cold and wet weather hit again - that could explain my hubby's and my nasty bugs. But it is supposed to be beautiful this weekend, so I can get out and finish planting the garden. Hubby cleaned out all the raised beds for me last week, so I have no excuses left! I'll post pics when I get it all planted! Any suggestions on what I should plant this year!?
