Press Pause

Earlier this week I learned that quilt #2 

was to be delivered this friday!

That gave me only 4 days to pull it off.

So, quilt #1 was put aside for the week.

I'll get back to that one next week.

I used my Brody pattern and copied borrowed this color palette

from the lovely Sew Katie Did.

She made a fabulous triangle quilt some time ago and 

I have been drooling over it ever since!

Anywhoodle, back to the matter.....

this quilt is for my brother in law
(I'm 1000% positive he will not see this post).

He's all young and single and hip and cool!

I'm hoping that he'll find a girl he's crazy about 

and use it for some quality snuggle time.

Tomorrow, I'll be binding, wrapping and delivering it.

Cheers!

The shame!

CONFESSION:

I don't normally make any Christmas presents.

none.

I feel horribly guilty about this when I see 

all of my quilty friends making such lovely things.

Christmas is pretty stressful on it's own without adding to it 

the anxiety of sewing late into the night 

every.single.night.

So I just don't.

But that all changes this year!

I am making, not one, but two rather large quilts 

for loved ones this year.

First up.....

the Giant Vintage Star Quilt

I spent some time on Saturday basting this quilt

since it was horribly cold and gray outside.

I have had these fabs on ice for the last 2 years.

I won't say who it's for just incase.

Now it's time to get busy top stitching!

Thanks for popping in :-)
