April Fools

 It may be April 3rd but Mother Nature is still playing April Fools. It has snowed, rained, hailed, been really windy and really sunny...today! The high was 45 degrees...brrrrr! It's been this way for the last three days. You'd think it would be perfect weather to sew but all I've wanted to do is burrow and read.

I got this donation quilt loaded.

It's about a 3rd done.  After staring at it for a really really long time I figured out a way to quilt it and travel across the quilt. It will take a while but I'm really liking it so far.

Part rulers, part free motion. You might have to enlarge the picture to see the quilting.

Nancy really liked the quilt and asked about the pattern. The top was donated and I don't know who made it. I tried to re-create it in EQ8.

Not bad. It even let me create a paper piece foundation for the block. Now if it would only let me save it with all the changes made after the initial layout is saved. I really need to read the instructions.

I pulled my April UFO Challenge quilt out.

Technically it is not a UFO as I haven't started it yet. I love the bright colors! I have an idea for a quilt top that should be pretty easy and fun to make.

As always too many projects going on at once and not enough initiative. I saw this on Facebook recently. I really think it applies to me.

 

Spuddle: to work ineffectively; to be extremely busy whilst achieving absolutely nothing.
