There's an upside to procrastination??? You bet there is....
I had put today aside, in order to work in my office....something I've been avoiding for quite sometime. There are still several jobs lurking, from well before Christmas. So why not procrastinate a little longer???
I went for a wild quilting ride instead. You know the kind.....
Fabric flying, no plan, no finishing a WIP......just pure, hair blowing in the wind, type quilting!!!! The fact that I was not doing what I should be doing, made it all the more delicious.
gorgeous! just love your quilts!
ReplyDeleteFantastic! I'm procrastinating too, but not having as much fun as you!
ReplyDeleteSounds like fun!
ReplyDeleteAfter my weekend of procastinating and thouroghly enjoying it, I must admit, it was back to the enormous pile of laundry..... that thing just never seems to go away :-) Loving your design so far!!
ReplyDeleteLove it.
ReplyDeleteI managed to stay on-task....plodding along with projects that are must-do's, looking forward to their finish so that I can have some fun moments with new projects!
Thanks....It will be nice when you get those must haves done, good for you.
DeleteAnd what a wonderful result! Lately my procrastination has been going in the opposite direction, so I envy your flurry of creativity and inspiration.
ReplyDeleteThis is a magnificent quilt! So much energy in this piece.
ReplyDeleteI love this quilt so much! I think it would be hard to do those circles! You are so very, very talented!
ReplyDeleteGo you!!! I haven't had a day like that in awhile. Love the results!
ReplyDeletei love it. how interesting. i must say i haven't seen a quilt you've made yet that i didn't like. always great colors.
ReplyDeleteThis is the way I work all the time. Don't you just love it. I wouldn't have it any other way in my studio. That is why I design and make all of my quilts just the way I want them without all those hard to understand instructions. P.S. I can't follow instructions.
ReplyDeleteClearly you should do this more often, it is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThis is fabulous. I love the circular lines. I would love to try this and am inspired to try...even on a small scale. When the snow falls tomorrow I hope i'll be inspired to try!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much. As I look at the snow coming down.....I'm thinking I'll just keep quilting as well.
DeleteYeehah! Awesome ! Amazing!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Bonnie.
DeleteHi Mari,
ReplyDeleteLove your curved piecing. Did you just wing it as far as the size of blocks you started with. I gave it a shot last night and had so much fun but had trouble in some aspects with losing a fair amount of fabric, not piecing the "right pieces" back together and I cannot figure out for the life of me why the the"ends" don't match up when I do sew it together. But all this to say it is incredibly cool. Whew,
Thanks for all of your sharing.
Hi Mari,
ReplyDeleteLove your work. I made some curved lines and posted on my blog. It was so funny. The most amazing is when I have seen the picture with your finished blocks covering the sewing machine. I began laughing. Mine is only 5 inches square.
Thank you and good luck
Beautiful. I really look forward to your updates!
ReplyDeleteA tutorial would be most-welcome (although it must be quite time-consuming for you!)
Thanks Sharon....I really enjoy doing the tutorials. I'm in the habit of taking quite a few photos along the way, so half the work's done already.
