Wow! It's been awhile since i posted on here. My "QuiltPorn" blog has me fairly busy, what with looking through photos on a daily basis, writing to ask permission from the artists, copy-n-pasting, and what-all. But it's all good! =-)
Besides... * I'm lovin' the daily inspirations!
And, apparently, so are others. =-) I've only been "live" 13 days, and i already have 16 Followers. Yay! I'm hoping that blog will "go somewhere"... "Become something."
...i'm not sure where or what yet, but that's what makes it a work-in-progress, right?
Anyway...
My Blue WaveRunner!!!
I finished it May 7th, 2010! (that's for posterity's sake)
Thank you so much Bunny, for taking the pix for me (in the beautiful Sunshine)!
Blue WaveRunner (Front):
inspired by BumbleBeans
(Yes, that is a lone Red strip, thank you!)
(Quilted this way because of the Back...)
And the Back:
Once again, this is not how i pictured it in my mind's eye...
But... why does that not surprise me?!
These things *never* seem to look how i think they should...
I'm not really happy with the quilting inside the wave...
I'm thinking about taking it out...
And maybe doing it...
by HAND! [gasp!]
So there it is.
It's supposed to go to a friend named Carlos...
But i can't help thinking how
Blue is my favorite color...
i've never made a quilt for myself...
i'll most likely never see this quilt again if i mail it off to Guatemala...
Hmmm...
I think i'll at least hang onto it until September and maybe enter it in my local Quilt Guild show...
That'll give me time to think about it.
=-)
Take care of yourself! And of those you love!
Thanks for stopping by! =-)
