Some time ago, before I moved to where I am now, I had a vision…. I was going to make a patchwork quilt.
At that time, it was not so big a deal… I only had 2 kids at the time and was working on cooking the third… and I only had a queen sized bed then.
I was ambitious… many of squares were going to be embroidered… I just knew it… and I started right away embroidering squares with things like names… celtic knots… and dragons…
… but I never went beyond that… the blocks that I embroidered sat around for years and I did nothing with them….
The bug has now got up my butt again, but things have changed since then. We have 4 kids… we now have a king size bed… I initially embroidered things on a diamond shape cloth, and now I’m favoring good old fashioned square shaped… I embroidered whatever held my fancy then… and now I’m sort of sticking to a theme (a loose one, but a theme nonetheless)- so I’m sort of starting over.
See? The quilt that never ends
