Patriotic Quilt Update
Patriotic Update
I pushed for a Friday flimsy to show you, but life got in the way. I've made significant progress, nevertheless, and added a blue border, and white outer border. Some of the time was spent imagining both where and how this quilt would be used. I think that's an important component in any design process.

Creative Confidence & Creative Pilgrimage Book Review
Anyone who has spent time with children will tell you they are always surprised by their creativity. They don't say, "This one is just SO creative, but that one...Oh, she doesn't have a creative bone in her body!" Yet we describe ourselves as adults in exactly these words. We say, "Sorry. I'm just not very creative." Why? Did something happen between childhood and becoming an adult?

Week 4 Blog Hop and 'By the Block' Review
Morale in the ranks is low. Show your support today. That is, the 2015 New Quilt Bloggers final week starts now. Remember your last couple days of summer camp when you knew you were headed home by the weekend? When the melancholy had shifted from starting camp homesick, and swung all the way to hoping it lasted all summer? Well, that's how I'm feeling, and it's not just me.

2015 MQG Finish for Riley Blake Designs & Pet Project Show #29
"The Aviary"
Ta-da! There was a sigh of relief on Sunday when I unpinned this from my longarm. It was a fabric challenge, and in some ways a personal challenge for not only me, but many of you, too. While I don't believe we should unveil our work to immediately critique it, it's good to evaluate both the positive and negative aspects. That's how we learn. Even if we don't do it publicly, we take mental notes on what we might change the next time.
