Distractions

A new idea is being explored...


With gentle curves of free-form hourglass blocks there are so many possibilities, it is hard to stop.


I see a new quilt evolving at a very slow pace. I am spending much of my time these days in the back yard.


There are many sweet distractions in the garden I must tend to.



For some reason this corn flower today reminded me of the triangle quilt from the book. I needed to see it and once I got it out, it ended up on the clothesline.


That made me think of start of another quilt.

You know how it is. 

If you give a mouse a cookie......


Distractions can be a good thing.. At least it is for me!

Have a great weekend!

  5. I think distractions can turn into fabulous quilts. Sometimes better than the ones we plan out so carefully!
