I got absolutely nothing done on it, not one stitch! But I did have a wonderful Thanksgiving reunion with my DH's family.
After all my experimenting on the Cottage CQ, I've been feeling the need to do some traditional crazy quilting as a little mental relief. I have a collection of vintage CQ digital images to draw from, and I especially liked this fan.So I think I'll whip this out before going back to the beach scene...it needs a little rest anyways.
When quilts tell you to give them a break, it is worth listening to them.....!
It's good that you were having such a good time that you didn't have time for a stitch. I break like that is good once in a while!
ReplyDeleteYou and I seem to be on the same path lately!
ReplyDeleteNow there's a sign of a great visit, no time to stitch! That fan looks very Christmasy, Allie.
ReplyDeleteI am a great believer in letting projects rest and pursuing something that's at a more fun stage in the meantime. Small projects are especially a break from bigger ones.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you had a good trip and that you gave your fingers and your brain a break.
Glad you had a good time... now get to stitching! ;0)
ReplyDeleteI like your inspiration image...your "to go" package looks a lot like mine did...Mine didn't get much use either!
ReplyDeleteJust a quick question, how do you sew the back of the fan-I invision it looking much like an envelope type and hand sew the bottom seam?
