I'm totally excited! lol
I'm (finally) getting around to making the Pay It Forward gifts, and am doing them in the order that BSP pulled the names, so I started making Quilterbear's gift yesterday.
It's a little more time intensive than I expected (not having made one before); but ZOMG!! it's sooooooooo pretty! I'm so pleased! Every time BSP came into the sewing room, it was all "That's so beautiful!" And though BSP thinks everything I make is beautiful, this time, it really is!
Anyway, I'm totally excited because a: I've never made one before, b: I'm doing it without a pattern and thus far, it's turning out well, and c: it's so pretty! Violet, yellow green...
Also, I'm pleased to say, I'm finally caught up on ALL of my birthday blocks (although I'm NOT so pleased with the Depression Blocks I made - I'm going to send them so she doesn't think I've COMPLETELY forgotten about her, but I'm going to have to make another set and re-send them. The points are off. Any hints from my readers? I don't paper piece...) The other ones are pretty though.
I'm also almost caught up on my round robins (sheesh, those are a lot of work, I don't think I'll ever do one again.)
So, I'm being a good girl, catching up on my responsibilities and having fun with them. :)
I hope to have pictures to post soon. Now that I'm almost caught up, I should be able to quilt a UFO so we'll have at least that soon.
Hope you're all doing well, and in the meantime, be good and have fun!
