What a difference a change in colour makes. This is the same quilt as two posts ago.
I swear (a lot, but that's beside the point) that ribbon border is one of my all time favorites.
Everything was s.i.d. The background was cross-hatched, inside the stars got a circle & bowknot motif, the trees were quilted with a continuous loopy-thing, and the ribbon border was inside 1/4 inched.
Much easier to see the quilting on the back. I love the Celtic Braid in the outer border.
BITCHIN'
Today is the SPRING FORWARD time change. You have no idea how much I hate this coming week. I will be dragging my ass every day trying to acclimate myself to an earlier wake-up. I mean, it's 1:00 in the afternoon already.
The other unpleasant event this week is the impending STORM arriving tomorrow and continuing through Tuesday. I don't have to go anywhere except the sweat shop in my basement, but it's the middle of March for Pete's sake! When the temperature dropped from +10 c. to -5 c my poor little crocuses pulled their heads back into themselves like turtles. I treated myself to a pot of tulips on the way home from retreat last Sunday, and they FROZE on the front porch, dammitall. We are anticipating up to 30 cm. of snow (translation: 12 inches).
Today I plan to get a little feel-good into my schedule. Seed Starting!
