Needless to say, my days are obviously a little messed up right now. I spent the weekend down with a migraine. Hooray. I missed work on Friday, and that threw my whole weekend off.
But. All is not lost, superfriends! (*shrug* I dunno... I just type this stuff). I managed to get my second AAQI quilt finished. I will send it off after Christmas, I suspect, since mailing things will be touch-and-go until then! And that way maybe I can finish the next one I've got planned, too!
Here it is! --------> (duh). What doesn't show so well in this pic is the quilting. I need to get a better up-close shot. The quilted clouds show up pretty well, but the quilted trees do not. Yup. I quilted rows of trees into my city. It seemed appropriate, for a quilt called "I Remember Trees Here."
So, two down.
And making more hexes recently. Managed to get the pattern enlarged ridiculously, so I can have HUGE hexes! I am working on a test one tonight. We'll see how far I get with it. I have Plans (yup, with a capital Puh).
And in even more fabulous news, my mother is improving all the time. Talked to her today - she is doing much better - feels much better, and sees much better now. She went to the doctor today and he was pleasantly surprised at how much better her vision was. That's a good thing! Of course, now my dad has the flu, so he's miserable. They finished up their remodeling, and are taking time to relax and heal up.
As soon as I finish quilting my BST I will post it, and prob a tutorial for it, too. It's an easy one. VERY easy. And hopefully I will soon get Little Moo FINALLY finished. I'm close to being able to bind it. I had hoped to tonight, but I am coughing a lot so I will head to bed when I am done with this post. BST is next in the rotation when Little Moo is done - so there is method in the disconnected sentences above. Gotta finish Little Moo before I can put BST in the hoop and quilt by hand.
So that's me for the night. I am taking my kitten and going to bed now.
Have a good night!
