I so enjoyed your discussion of all the decisions, starts and stops, etc and am so glad to know someone else goes through all those deliberations too. The little flourish at the end of the quote says to me “Think about it”. I laughed when I read your comment about showing it to your mother. My dear mother has been gone for only 2 1/2 years, but I remember so well telling myself to “take it with a grain of salt” before showing her something because you never knew what she would come up with. The end result of all your decisions (isn't that what every quilt is?) is fabulous!Sally Langston Warrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08947024909324503884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5297789041481934828.post-50796395031980277522021-09-20T00:58:20.057-07:002021-09-20T00:58:20.057-07:00Let's say here that I began as a very traditio...Let's say here that I began as a very traditional quilt maker, but I REALLY LIKE what you do!

Such a great sentiment. <br />Congratulations on figuring out clamshells. The colors added there and in the flowers pump everything up. How clever to use some of your old shirts, too. This is a wonderful quilt down to the whatchamacallit.

Your comment about showing the...It's terrific! Your comment about showing the quilt to your mom and implication that she wasn't as pleased with it as you are set me to thinking. My mother has been gone for over 20 years and so her opinion hasn't affected the choices I've made in quilting. Now, I'm considering what she would think of some of the things I've done. I do know my daughters openly voice their distaste for some of my quilts. It doesn't hurt my feelings but it makes me 2nd guess my choices sometimes. This "positive" quilt turned out really well and I think you should be pleased with yourself. I love the flourish at the end. A flourish always feels good.Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14423024947233260195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5297789041481934828.post-63256833572092391502021-09-18T06:39:57.160-07:002021-09-18T06:39:57.160-07:00Your quilt is a celebration.

Which are found again in the new surge of cross stitch enthusiasts of late. I love seeing your finishes and it only gives me more of the feeling I will soon dive into a big hand appliqué project.
