I made up a bunch of squares, even sewed beads onto some of them, but then they got set aside. So I got them out over my Christmas week off, and finally made a little wall hanging with some of them.
Unlike Leo, my rescued lab, who doesn't like to do much and doesn't feel guilty about it at ALL.
I also quilted this little wall hanging called "Summer Solstice", that I sewed together months ago...
--Edited on Friday, 1/4/13 to link up with Nina Marie Sayre's Off The Wall Friday. My goals for 2013 are to be more productive, and to use up as much fabric as I can before dyeing or buying any more. Also, to do something with those piles of scraps that are everywhere. Like Nina, I should also add discipline and focus as words to live by this year. Thanks for hosting this each week, Nina!
Hi, Laura. I LUV your circles piece--the greens and blues make me weak at the knees! You're starting the new year with pizazz!
ReplyDeletebest, nadia
Beautiful pieces.
ReplyDeleteLeo's Lesson #1
You don't HAVE to be productive ALL the time!
I'm working on reducing my stash as well! So far, I have made a laptop case and a table runner... working on a couple of placemats now to go with the table runner. You reminded me that I have wanted to do some more itajime shibori dyeing... haven't done any in awhile, but I sure like how it comes out. Happy 2013!
ReplyDeleteohhh it must be a circle kind of week - did you notice how many circles there are on Off the Wall?? and yeah I'm thinking that although my word of the year is productivity - its something that comes and go! Still - let's keep each other more on the going side this year!
ReplyDeleteNice to finish up a few loose ends, isn't it? I like your sweet helper! We have 2 puppy dogs that we adopted from our local rescue.
