The Visitor and the Medallion Challenge

The Purple quilt challenge, for me is morphing

So far, the pink border with the triangle corners is set.

I am auditioning the next borders.

Sometimes the only way to see the value is by

posting it online.

Already, I think that I might add some yellow to those corners.

And, maybe the next border should be more the dark rose...

I do not know..And, it is not time for the very last border...

Plus, this is all I have of it.

Drinking red wine and snacking at 12:30 pm 

is not the time for decisions.. Things just have to sit.

 I will study these photos for a few days.

Meantime, Friday night I had a lovely visitor.

A blogging friend of many years, Portia Augustee

This talented quilter spent 6 hours chatting with me..

on life and quilts and values...so wonderful.

It was delightful to meet another eccentric and non rule follower.

I had never, ever met her before.

She brought me these snippets...NONE of which I have...miracle.

She offered to sort my scraps..to take them away to land unknown.

I said, yes.

Then, I said, no.

Then I said, yes.

Really, I did not even know this lady...she could be a fabric snatcher.

The anxiety I felt as she left with my buckets was enormous.

I have always had abandonment issues...but with fabric scraps..

Jeeze Louise.

It is not like she took all my two room stash of 50 years...

So, then I said she could just keep them.

Then I said, NO

Then I said, Yes...

Stay tuned...
