I have been busy planning a trip to the mainland next month to visit friends and family. My sister, Debi, thinks she's going to get me out on the golf course so I can try to hit that little bitty ball. We're going to catch up with Lani, another sister. I am so looking forward to this trip.
My Aunt Karen and I have been plotting and planning a fabric shop hop across parts of Montana to build up my fabric supply and project list. However, I couldn’t wait and needed a project so I could play with my latest little toy. I received a Connecting Threads catalog and fell in love with their Irresistible Indigos collection and bought the Dakota Pathways twin-size quilt kit.
I was so anxious to get started that I just jumped in – wrong thing to do! It suddenly dawned on me that I was cutting the wrong direction. At least these were uniform squares and were cut on the straight of grain. That scare was a wake-up call to slow down and think things through before I destroyed something. So far, half the top has been pieced and it is going together beautifully, I think.
(And the little Featherweight has been an absolute joy piecing this together.)
