So what have I been doing the past week. I read three books. I couldn't put down Jodi Piccoult's new book and read it in 48 hours. I knit-a bit rusty I was-but finished a hat and am working on the mittens. I also am stitching on my new jeans piece. Again, slow but steady. Binding this piece in the background tonight. It is partially pieced and partially fused. A nice size for one of my walls and will be hung tonight. I watched these DVDs and picked up a few tips.
Today, I have a confession. I have been sewing for a long time. I never had entered or attempted to enter a show. And this spring, I got up enough courage to do it. One of my pieces was accepted to a small show-80 pieces- in May-a quilt show. I was surprised because it isn't like anything I have seen in the show before. But, I was happy!
Also, I have a commission. Might be a challenge-working with colors I wouldn't have chosen-but that is what I am finding to be a commission. Two good things in one week. You can't beat that.
And now, I must go and work on these motifs for my class at the Barn in May.
Happy sewing, my friends.
Glad to hear you are doing well! Congrats on the show-what is it? It is nice to hear such good news now that you are able to get back to your studio.
