What would you think?

All that hard work, the money and the drive to get the monster quilt done has led to this for roughly 16 hours of the day...


Would you be annoyed or even angry, or would you laugh it off and know that your child enjoys being wrapped up in this quilty goodness for about 9 hours a day?  

I'm seriously vacillating between the two and need to come to some kind of resolution...soon.  

My upcoming weekend:  husband out of town = major sewing time.  Woo Hoo!  

History Quilter Podcast Episode #6 was recorded and published yesterday so head on over to iTunes or Podbean to give a listen.  http://historyquilter.podbean.com/

Open Windows Finish & a new WIP

Just out of the dryer is Open Windows:
Open Windows - finished March 2011
The above was my best attempt at "staging" this monster.  Here is the gratuitous on-the-bench train wreck.  Design is not my forte.  

This is what my son will see when he gets home from school today.  Hope he likes it!  

While anxiously awaiting how this quilt did in the washer/dryer, I pulled out my Anna Maria Horner stash and decided on various Garden Party FQ's to use for the Supernova Quilt Along with Lee at Freshly Pieced.  So excited!  

My non crafty WIP:  Made a run to my favorite nursery yesterday to load up on these:


Tomatoes (my attempt at growing seeds this year was dismal), Onions, Peppers, Potatoes, Basil and Butternut Squash.  

Go check out Lee at Freshly Pieced to see amazing things that people are posting today.  

Off to the garden,
Ciao!
