Even though the temps are beautiful outside..... I have been feeling a little - well, how do I put this? Warm? Steamy? Hot Under the Collar? Well, no.... just flashy.... Oh wouldn't it be nice if flashy meant that I had a fun little skirt on with gems and rhinestones? Little red shoes all glittered up? Lots of makeup and big 80's hair....
Of course not. In my case it means: uncontrollable, without notice, bouts of sweaty and heated moments.... where you lose your breath for a time because it is just so darn hot. Opening a window and letting in the cool air helps - until your hubby comes in and tells you it is cold outside! "Well, yes dear, it is..... that is why it is open!" (This is all said in my head - not out loud... at least not today)
So during the rush of heat which overtakes my every fiber - I have been working on John's Quilt top. I am pretty pleased with it because (a) it was the first one I have done where the blocks were on point, (b) no sweat marks anywhere on it and (c) most important - hubby loves it. He loves the colors and the simplicity of it. I even have him convinced to let me put the focus fabric on the back!
I still need to put about a 2 or 3 inch border on - which I will do in the same beige fabric (but I have to go to my favorite quilt store and get some more - oh darn) and will bind it in the blue fabric (the little squares - as my pictures are not true to color!)
And I also learned how to put my name on the pictures!

So back to work for me.... I need to work on the BOM and still need to finish steps 2, 3, and 4 on the mystery quilt.
So while I have a hot flash....... I will just open the window and turn on the ceiling fan..... and make the sewing machine go at full speed!
