This is my design 'book', a simple writing tablet. |
First snow, view out the front door. |
Time to put up Christmas decorations and take fall decor down. |
My order from Missouri Star Quilt Com. came. |
My 'Butterfly Four Patch' quilt design in my design book. |
My version of X's & O's liberated style in my design book. |
Hope you all had a good Thanksgiving. I know I have so much to be thankful for. I used to hear my parents say that a lot and it kind of went over my head. But I'm on board now with being thankful and grateful, I totally get it.
Last week the first snow blanketed everything in Salem, New Hampshire. Lovely.
It melted in a couple of days. Back to cold and sunny today.
I wanted to share my 'design book' with you because I enjoy 'designing'; doodling a lot and it helps me stay focused. The more I take time to draw out my ideas the more satisfied I am with the outcome.
I highly recommend it. Nothing fancy or complicated but it works for me.
My order from MSQC came; a Laundry Basket Quilts batik by Edyta Sitar. Her batiks are so fabulous. Her fabric designs are great too but her batiks are Wow. I do have a weakness for good batiks, so organic, so layered, so real life color. I must get a hold of myself.
Also, I ordered Missouri Star Quilt Comp.'s 'Mod Block' magazine, I think it's published once a year.
They have a lot of inspiration packed in that magazine, super!
Hope you have a good week full of design/dream opportunities.
Designing is dreaming isn't it?
I'll stop by soon to see what you're up to!
