Heck, I even forgot to blog about its completion!
In early 2019, I did gather the energy to actually sew the binding on.
And, manage to get a bit of the binding hand sewn ...
But there it sat for quite some time until ... I picked it back up in July 2019
I was determined to mark this project "done". Seriously, wasn't it time I finally completed this quilt. I was so close. I cranked up the a/c ... like who wants a warm quilt on their lap in the middle of summer ... and got stitchin'.
Voila .... completed!
Can you imagine being so close and yet just letting sit there. Well, I'm glad I finally said enough is enough and got it done.
Sometimes we forget why we set a project aside ... for me I let life get in the way. I've also come to understand that when life gets challenging, it's important to not forget what makes us happy ... and for me creativity is my happy place. When I create, whether is is writing or quilting, it provides a place of sanity, a peaceful space. I hope you have found your place of sanity during your challenging times ... that's when it's the most crucial ... regaining a sense of peace during times of unrest.
Thanks for stopping by! Enjoy your creative outlet whatever it may be! Cheers!

I love your quilt. I have the pattern but haven't started yet. Maybe you inspired me. Hugs
Your quilt is beautiful, I really need to make nice ones and I have plenty of fabric, just trying to get my mojo back. I have a quilter and it is just sitting there, I need to sit down and play with it to get the right tension and the rest will be fun. Creating is our happy place.
