Because it won't let me post comments. For the past week. So I'm putting up a post with my comments. In the previous post, Beth from Maine, my wall and floor are covered with strip-sets that I've sewn in the past week. I'm trying to find the motivation to go work with them. I do like your purple blocks.
Kit! I know you found the book -- but I tried and tried to post a comment -- my friend, Cathy Neri, of QBU Books has a special limited time offer for "friends of Karen" for Rayna's book -- it includes free shipping. You can reach her toll free at: (877) 315-7131 or at QuiltingBooksUnlimited@gmail.com.
Quilter Beth -- I love those colors -- I'm wondering, after looking at yours and Beth from Maine's posts, if I need to ditch the soft colors and go back to my brights.
Judith! Your pieces are just fantastic. Again, I think I need to ditch the soft colors -- it's so cold outside, I must need brights! Although, my son liked the dragon fabrics I used.
So now I'm going to go downstairs to pull some COLOR from my stash and see if I can perk up all this blah. TTFN...

ReplyDeleteThis will help you with the comment problem. I think a lot of people are having that same issue. I heard from a number of them when I was vocal about my problem.
I think blogger is working on it. Maybe.....

ReplyDeleteThanks for the info about the book Karen, but yes, it's already on it's way to me - in fact, I think I should be able to take delivery of it tomorrow. *crosses fingers* I should think myself lucky I guess to be able to get it in two weeks in Canada even if it's not readily available in stores; my friend from the UK who wants it can't get it all! (|So when I'm done with this challenge I'll send it on to her.)
ReplyDeleteI've been auditioning orphan blocks and I've finally decided on one so once I get the book I'll be able to start working.
I like your "blah" but you know, I'm very fond of muted and limited palettes. Looking forward to seeing what you do with it!
Karen, I think your strip sets are good backgrounds but you do need to find something to be the star. Just my opinion.
ReplyDeleteI prefer wordpress, it's safer than blogger!
