As Time Flies By

Yet another month that I have let slip by without posting. I do have a finished project to share, though. The story behind this quilt goes as follows: A few years ago, I found a beautiful quilt top at a thrift store. My hubby talked me out of buying it and I kicked myself for listening to his drivel. Right then, I vowed if I found another one, it was coming home with me. It actually took another few years before I found another one, and this person's color choice was off. Nonetheless, I had to have it. More time goes by, and I realize that if I plan to quilt it, then I need a quilter's foot for my machine. Right, I go buy the foot, and then more time goes by. Finally, in 2009, I start just a "simple" stitch in the ditch, and then I give up. This darn blankedty blank quilt is sapping all my energy and time. In January of this year, I declared enough is enough, and sat and finished it. Is it perfect? No. Will it keep us warm? Yes.

And who claimed this quilt when it was finished? My husband. Enough said.
