I decided that I would write one big long post to catch up, because I seem to have bunches of photos yet to post. I don’t want to say “oh 3 weeks ago, I made this and that.”<\/p>\n

\"Another<\/a>
Another view of the Tarts<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Another idea for the curvy coffee pot embellishment. My mom<\/a> told me that steam goes down first and I should put the hearts below the exit to the spout. I tried it, took a picture and above is the result. I prefer the other view, Fluttering Hearts<\/a>, regardless of whether or not steamreally\u00a0 goes up or down. I think I am really getting sick of this obsessing about the Tarts. I got home from my week away, saw the Tarts on my design wall and just sighed. I thought to myself “oh brother, just make a decision about the &*(^%$ hearts and move on already!” Perhaps it is time to just applique’ the hearts on the curvy coffee pot and move on. Perhaps I will start on the back and that will give me renewed energy around this project?<\/p>\n

\"Mosaic<\/a>
Mosaic Mirror #1<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

TFQ has these wonderful mirrors at her house. They are made by an artist named Kathe. I love the glass beads and blobs and shards she uses to create her designs.<\/p>\n

\"Mosaic<\/a>
Mosaic Mirror #2<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I like the sun at the top of the one above. Notice the two different color schemes?<\/p>\n

\"FOTY<\/a>
FOTY 2009 Blocks, Nov. 2009<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Above are the most recent FOTY blocks. I made them before I left on my travels. I have a month and a half to wash, press and cut pieces from my new fabrics. As I have mentioned, I want to be ready to make the FOTY 2009 at the CQFA retreat in January. I had better not buy anymore fabric. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

\"3<\/a>
3 Columns, Nov. 2009<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Here is another Sorbet block. I made it in between trips. I call it 3 Columns, for obvious reasons. It may have another name. I don’t think it is really that easy to make up new blocks, but I also haven’t looked it up in Barbara Brackman’s block book. I will sometime. Let me know if you know the real name. I still have not looked at the fabrics again to see what other colors I need to add. I am limping along with this project.<\/p>\n

\"Green<\/a>
Green for Ornaments<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I have been cutting green strips since about July as I press fabric. I have also been saving shards in order to make ornaments. I usually make a few every year, but don’t seem to have taken any photos to show you. I’ll have to put that on my list of things to do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
