Today I am sharing a quilt from 2001.
That year, every day I drove my 10 years old son, a sixth grader to Jr. high for an accelerated math class. Schools district we lived in was quite accomodating and teachers were very helpful. Two schools worked together for his academic needs.
He went and did his math for an hour while I sat in the car and worked on this quilt. After his class he went back to his elementary school and resumed the day.
Shail and I became good friends that year. This are Flower Pots from 2001.
Pattern is by Blackbird Designs.
I was pretty new at this and enjoyed every single stitch. I chose contrasting colored thread to be able to see the stitches.
A new applique quilt is sounding pretty good this fall.
But first, I am going to put a sleeve on this quilt. I have never hung this quilt on the wall.
I remember how much fun this was! It seems so long ago!
Shail, now leaves in Michigan. He is enjoying his new job and exploring everything that's coming his way.
I love how life goes on and days become memories. We revisit those days through our quilts when we see them. Keep making whatever it is you are working on today. Some day you will look back and reflect on this day.
