Nearly Done

I have finished putting my baby Dresden Plates together...
And I am really pleased to say they fit where they are supposed to go....woohoo!
A spot of applique to secure them and their little gold centres and my secret commission will be ready for some lovely quilting!!
Which means??
I can start something new! And that something has been on my wish list for a long time. It is a project in Quiltmania magazine and until recently I only had one of the issues needed. Thanks to a lovely gift from a friend I now have the other back issue.....

I am very excited to be mulling over fabrics in my minds eye for this beauty!
I just love it! So I can see a few "long term" projects in my future.  I am really hoping that a lot of the fabrics will come out of my stash.
Well I best not tarry.....got to finish my Dresden work so I can begin.....
I will leave you with this quote which was a favourite of my Grandmother and which she recited to me often. I find them inspiring words.
Enjoy your evening.
Namaste and Blessings Michelle xxx

    The little Dresdens are so cute...EPP is one of my favourites probably because it can be picked up and worked on anywhere. The Brinton Hall will be a beautiful quilt and as you say a long term project!.... Enjoy your search through your stash!

    Your baby dresdens are so cute and I love your new project. I have those quiltmania too and I looked a very lot to it. But I'm still in doubt.

    How sweet are those baby dresdens and a lovely new project to start. Please bring the magazine when we meet so I can see it properly. Thats a great quote - we need more of that as there is enough yucky in the world without adding to it...
