i want to celebrate, or at least recognize, all the parts that make up the whole.
the opening photo (above) is two projects intermingled on my sewing table: bits of liberty betsy and green crossweave i cut for "star hollow" blocks before i changed my mind about the project sitting on top of pieces for flying geese blocks to finish off "grellow garden geese." both of these projects need some rethinking before they move forward.
when his sister's first birthday arrived in december, i knew there was no more procrastinating the gifting. so i wrapped his quilt and birdies together to give to him when i brought her gifts to her.
but i got stumped on a few technical issues. i don't know what program she used to compose her pages that aren't photos. if i ever get it figured out, i'll do the project and share how i did it/what i use.
side note about the above photo - the quilt in the photo was also made by jolene and i spied several of the fabrics in it through out the book in other quilts. so fun.
i have no explanation.
layout of my longterm scrap project, "bonnie lass" by jen kingwell (resized), to see how it's looking. have i even talked about this one at all on this blog? i'll go look.
report - it got a very brief mention twice. i'll save the explanation for another post.
so there's the little lost moments of my quilt life in 2024, the forgotten photos.
2024 was a very big finish year for me. i had several quilts almost completed that i pushed over the finish line into "finished and in use' status. that was quite satisfying, for sure. but moments that add up to a finish are mostly where my quilt life exists.
