So I'm back to quilting again... no more maudlin meanderings for the time being. I've been experimenting with color and placement with lonestars and came up with this:
I thought it was interesting because even though it's constructed like any other lonestar, it looks very different - has something of the look of a faux feathered star. Please, if you read this, let me know what you think. I'd really appreciate any comments before I start cutting and sewing.
I've also been working on a squirrel quilt, featuring the most adorable squirrels and crows, both of which I love because my neighborhood is full of them. The quilt is a BOM from Bunny Hill Designs, and not in my usual colors - all browns and reds and lilacs. I usually work in brighter colors, but I decided to step outside my comfort zone for this one and use their colorations. I will post some pictures soon - but I'd actually have to take some first.
Well, I've been having some problems with a fuzzy spot in the middle of my vision lately, so I'm off to the opthamologist... gotta run.
