Since last June...10 months ago? I have known about these free online continuing education credits that I need for my license. They expire in two weeks...I did this instead:) There is nothing like the power of procrastination to get something else done. I was very pleased with myself tonight. I free-motioned this 20 cent panel in one hour. It is not perfect, but I am pleased with it. I used variegated thread and did it the Leah Day way. In her free-motion quilting project she suggests that the quilting is done in rows. That is the way I quilted this..easier because I could then remember where I had been.
The back was a very old fabric that needed to be used up.
And, tonight I was not too lazy to use my quilting gloves..it did make a nice difference. I had my mug of tea with local honey to get me going. I was oh, so calm despite going to Walmart and forgetting the new iron I needed. I was also discouraged looking for jelly beans. Plain Brach's jelly beans..how hard can that be. I found the jelly beans...Starburst jelly beans, spicy jelly beans, rough coated jelly beans, life saver jelly beans, etc, etc...but as you can see, according to my mug...I stayed calm:) Calm that is without my jelly beans.
My mother is really a big baby. And, she is nuts about Mickey/Minnie Mouse. So I made her an Easter basket. I tell her that at Sunrise Assisted Living, where she lives, she can be the sweet angel and I will be the witch. Oh, no dear, she says...you can just be the crocodile! And so I am......
