Hello Quilt friends, Quilt News from the Pacific NW, where it's cold!
After a great road trip, driving through Nor Cal, Oregon and into Washington, here we are visiting grandkids and their 'caretakers.'
We have a view of Lake Washington and fishermen in boats when the sun is out.
No big projects but some time for small hand work. For my little art quilt, RagTag, I used only scissors and hand pieced and embroidered it. It's named RagTag because it is made from scraps and I'm going through a time when things feel a bit Ragtag and scrappy with alot of making do going on.
Life is like that sometimes, right?
When I thought about writing this post I knew I had to include lots of orange, yellow and blue because they are warm cheerful colors and lots of my past projects have those colors in them. Also soon I will start the piecing process for my AHIQ color challenge quilt and I have chosen orange, yellow and blue! I have many pieces and blocks in my 'parts department' maybe it will be a sampler style quilt.
And the photo of the
Spotted Towhee, notice the orange under its wing and the spots on its wing? The light wasn't great but the spots came through. I love bird watching. Walking through winter gardens and parks here there are a lot of birds; chickadees, finch, sparrows, nuthatch, naming only a few, and quiet winter colors to enjoy.
And that Quilt Friends is the news from the cold north.
We'll be here for a few more weeks, and I'll get some hand stitching done. Mostly enjoying grandkids of course!
We have a lot to be thankful for don't we?
I'll be by to visit!
