a slow sunny morning with tea and yesterdays dishes bubbling away in the dishwasher. 6.08 am and the sun was hitting my face with such force i wanted to be awake and enjoying it. tom rolled over and muttered..."is it 6.00 already?"our evening last night was delightful. a lovely flow of people. fun. interesting. engaged. the conversation was full and lively. and now i've started planning my 'quilts in the trees' event. there is a frenzy of cutting and sewing and building and compiling and all the fabric energy that goes into the making. i want 15 or 20 quilts hanging in the branches of the big trees, displayed in all their happiness. for a quilt is always happy. there is joy in a quilt that is sewn in. and seeing them fully, instead of folded or rolled or draped on a chair makes it a louder joy. swinging in the green of summer trees in our little garden yard where you can walk between them, interact with them. oh, i'm getting impatient for this to happen. it will be soon!!!
What a great idea. I don't see the patchwork quilts around here so much nowadays but they will always be my favorites. I love all the color.

ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful, fabulous, incredible idea!!!! I so badly want to be there!! Please take hundreds of photos. I'm glad yesterday went well. I miss you!!!
ReplyDeleteI am a quilt person for sure, I love them. Your quilts always look "happy." I've yet to try to make one, I guess I'm not sure about the skills needed or how to go about getting started.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see them blowin' in the breeze. Make sure to take a lot of photos. ~ :)
I love those pictures of your quilts. Your quilts in the trees idea is inspired!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is going to be soooo good! A quilted installation of color and joy:
