Quilting these woven hillsides... all I want to be doing.
One little moon was started, but I am so distracted by those hills. (This one might take a while, but there are a few other pieces in the shop).
Thanks to Dee for her gift of scraps, including these golden moon bits, Tina for the deep purple night, and for Deb's golden threads that add to the glow.
I wish I had one to share... These days are filled with day-to-day-ness and/or the scurrying and worrying of getting Moon ready to head off to college (one week!). There's actually not too much worrying, with him being the second send-off, and so much closer than Blue was, anything needed can be delivered in a daytrip. There may still be a few anxieties going on (his and mine), but we are all excited and ready for this next step to happen.
He insists on taking this old blanket, so some mending has been done to hold it together. It's so threadbare, a synthetic purchase from a department store in the late 80's (probably the only bought blanket in the house). Covered with silly sheep. He loves it. He says he'll take the quilt I made him, too. At least there's that.
We have packing piles all throughout the house... his for school, and two for me. I'm delighted to be assisting Christine Mauersberger during her workshops next week (this one and this one). It's going to be a busy good week!
In the meantime, there are hills to stitch....
And, yes, I am going about this project in every direction at once, trusting that it will all work out in the end.
