I've made a new rule for myself: I can't start a new craft until I complete an unfinished one. For that reason, I pulled out my old crazy quilt squares, which have been sitting in a hat box for several years. It was like revisiting an old friend when I realized, "Oh yeah, I stitched a teapot on this one!
And a rose applique on this one.
An under-the-sea scene on this one.
I really need only one more fabric base to have the nine blocks I need for the quilt, and what's the theme of the new one? Another teapot-themed block. I thought I'd show you the "Before" shot as I'm getting started, and hopefully, that'll encourage me to finish it and show the "After" shot soon!
Oh, how pretty! This definitely needs to be finished so you can use and enjoy it! (Says she who has several unfinished projects awaiting her attention…)
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful quilt. So creative. You must finish it. It needs to be out where people can enjoy it. Elaine (in Toronto)
