Jul. 2, 2008 - A Long, Slow, Boring Read About My Quilt-in-Progress
After my Mom wrote an facinating post on absolutely nothing, saying she wanted to start blogging on her personal blog more, I figured it was about time I come up with something that I hope sounds interesting. If not, which is what I expect, please don't sue me.
I am working on a quilt out of scraps of fabric that a friend gave me. I was excited when I first started, because I thought for sure it would beautiful. It is not anything fancy, just squares in a paricular pattern, but the example that I had seen was so cute, that I had wanted to try it.
I guess I should also say that this is going to be my first real quilt ever, if I ever finish it. The other day, Bluejane came in and told me "You should go work on your quilt". It baffled me, so I asked her, "Why?" She said, "Because, I can't wait for you to finish it, so that I can see it!"
That made me excited, because it's not very often that I can get her excited about any of my projects.
Yes, I do plan on posting pictures, but again, that depends on whether or not I finish it. You never know with me!

Man, oh, man I can't wait to see your quilt. I have seen a few on others blogs, made out of scraps, and they were all stunning... just simple squares, but still beautiful. I'm sure yours will be too! :)
Oh I noticed your drop-bars on your sidebar with your awards and ads... I like that. Would you mind sending me the code? I don't that I could use it but I wanna see what it looks like. I tried to use one of those on my HSB template last year and it didn't work.
Btw, did I mention I love your blog template. Orange is totally groovy. :D

That'll be so neat to see when its finished! I have been wanting to actually work on some quilting sometime soon. Quilts always look so neat and old-fashioned. Plus, its always inspiring for me to see the quilts and quilted wall-hangings my grandma, aunt, and even my dad have made! I actually have some vintage quilt pieces to use- maybe I should get started sometime this summer... ;-)
Have a wonderful day!
