Its Been A While

So I am in a dilemma—carry on from this point, or go back and add posts that I wished I had added all along. Hmmm—maybe a combo of the two will happen. I am on holidays for the rest of the month and have the time, so we’ll see what this blog looks like in 2 weeks.



For now, here is my latest project. A wedding quilt for a young lady whom I have know for a long time.





I know its not the greatest picture, but it is still a work in progress. She loves purple, so I really, really tried. It evolved into this mock up I did in PSP:



The pattern developed from a picture I had seen of a class taught by Sonja Shogren called Match Play. I wrote her asking if she had this class for sale. She did, but I had to do the quilt before I got her class plan. To be honest, I still do not have it yet (yaah mail service), so designed this from the picture on her site. It was fun, but time consuming. I will definitely make more of these though.



Off to layer the beast—its big—about 108” x 108”, so I will have to work on my biceps so that I can manage this guy when I quilt it.
