Years ago I made these blocks and even added a border, but it was never my vision for the quilt. Later I removed the border to use on another quilt. It was just perfect for another quilt, even the size. This first bunch of blocks was called Plan A.
Then I made another quilt that better fit my first idea and called it Plan B. I put the pattern for this one in Save the Scraps
.
Then I decided to make Plan A more to my liking and, of course, had to call it Plan C. I had to separate the blocks, but that's no big deal. I just put the speaker phone on and let my friend entertain me. I guess tv would work, too. I had it all cut out and sewn - even the border was cut! Then just before I was about to add the border I decided to add another row of blocks. Can you tell I'm still in that "bigger is better" frame of mind? Actually, Mark liked this one too, so I thought as long as it's a keeper it oughta be useful.
Life can be stressful at Christmas time so I want to be able to sit down to sew when I NEED to. This is one top I hope to finish. And I will probably start work on one of the kits I put together a few months ago. Sure glad I did that. Now is not the time to concentrate on sewing. That mindless sewing will do tons to keep me relaxed. I hope you can find some time to relax by quilting this season. Happy Holidays.
