I enjoy quilting. It’s creating with fabric something that wraps you in … love and warmth.
Here’s the two quilt tops and backings for BFF’s g-kids. GD loves black. Her quilt top is made of a kajillion different fabrics to create one image. With a backing that … tones things down. GS’s top has one busy fabric with two solids … to create consistency. And then a backing that using his favorite colors that he wants to keep to himself … pink, yellow and Mario characters.
BFF was fabric oriented … I am project/pattern oriented. She has tons and tons of fabric coz she loves it allllll. Bits and pieces and yards and yards. She grabs fabric and then somehow puts it all together. A scrappy quilter … very abstract. I have fabric to complete a quilt. I like a pattern and then go find the fabric that I want to use to make the vision I see. There’s no right way to complete a … goal … as long as you … complete the goal.
I’m still going through past Spark blogs. Geeeeeze … I was more “fabric” oriented picking up every train of thought I liked, going this way and that with doing what I thought at the moment, braggin’ when things were going well, hiding from Sparkers when it wasn’t. I’m reading through 2017 when I was … focused on losing weight and lost a total of 100 pounds. I was … project oriented. More true to myself.
My thoughts and feelings are allllll over the place. I can’t seem to settle inside. I can’t seem to hear my own … voice.
I feel like one of BFF’s quilts … bits and pieces.
