While it's not exactly a "quilt", I made some placemats. My M-I-L is the kind of lady who has decorations for every occasion/holiday. She did not, however, have any placemats/table runner for the 4th of July. Horror! So, I decided to make some for her...and I made a few extra for us. I know now why I dislike the applique...what a pain in the rear those stars were! Especially since I used gold thread...remind me never to to a project again with gold thread! That stuff gave me fits!
Welcome to My World
The rantings, philosophies, and memories of a retired military, ex-diplomat, tattooed biker chick, quilting o'lady, pagan college student step-mom.
No guilt trip here - I refuse to to cave into that trap - about anything. Everything happens for a reason (Karma? Fate? Destiny? Dumb Luck? or Free Will...) and it is what it is. I've come to a point in my life where I can accept that.
Eveyone always told me to write a book, because I have so many funny stories, life experiences, unique view points...but, a book? What a pain in the ass. Blogging seemed like the next best thing, so, if you're ready (and there's room enough for everyone!) fire up the bikes and lets ride....
