I got nothing for you this morning. Nothing I can show. My mini-hexies quilt is still being quilted . . . I've got gifts I'm working on (no peeking!) . . . a hop pillow I'm working on (Holiday Lane Pillow blog hop begins Wednesday!) . . .
I *did* convert the bear paw block to a 3.5" block in EQ ... so it's ready for mini-quilt construction (some day)!
I think this is the setting I've settled on. This was inspired by Judy's design wall last week. It probably still needs some tweaking, but I decided I really like the darker sashing, especially with the lighter strips offsetting the bear's paws in the blocks themselves.
I've got another wreath I want to make. I've got all the materials, so perhaps soon. This one, that I saw in the craft shop in Maryland . . .
Only with a hat. He's calling me pretty loudly (I think you can probably see why).
The sewing bunk room is still a mess and that tends to crush my will to be creative. I need to do something about that (other than take pictures that I'm too embarrassed to post).
But being on my feet for too, too long has been something I've resisted over the last two weeks. The stitches are coming out of my foot this morning, though, so perhaps this week will be the week! (Yeah, because tidying the sewing bunk room rates right up there with my Ellie day, taking Sawyer to the fire station for dinner with Paw-paw, and getting ready for Thanksgiving.)
Maybe next week?
Maybe I need *more* inspiration . . . so I'm heading over to Judy Laquidara's Patchwork Times to look at other design walls. If her internet has been up and working. If not, maybe it's all a SIGN!
Happy Monday!
:)
