A Little Quilt for Me

Swiss cheese anyone? I’ve been goofing around with turning edges this week and working on a small art quilt wall hanging. Yes, the holes will go all the way through the quilt once it’s finished!

Playing with artistic techniques like this is a real treat. I find when I don’t push my edge and try new things, I start feeling really bored quilting the same thing over and over. Lately I’ve been quilting a lot of large scale quilts and the blocks for the Machine Quilting Block Party. While I love all of this work, I need to occasionally quilt something drastically different just for myself:

I’ll be sharing more about this quilt, and I may turn it into a workshop as well, but for now it’s a delightful creative escape just for me to enjoy. Make sure to quilt something for yourself today, just for the fun of it, just because you can!

Let’s go quilt,
