Need some time management

I had to take a short break from "producing" balls and biscornues for my March CQJP block:

There's the TAST stitch 58 at the left bottom, too.

From the blocks I have so far this would be a possible arrangement
There's a delay in my TAST stitching though I used some in my blocks. But number 58 looked so cute so I had to try adding leaves around the spirals.
Last weekend started a new class at Quilt University with Elizabeth Barton "Working in Series"
and I have to do my homework. Plus I'm working on a baby quilt for my partner's daughter. So I'm more than busy ....

Another three



While snowflakes show their dance outside I did three  more "balls". Two of them are more experimental in shape, one with just five diamonds whose sides are different lengths and the other one sewig five equal sided diamonds and five others together. It's an interesting look, I personally like the smaller one better.

More items

Some more pictures of the small things I've completed until now - two more biscornues and three balls. And as always while on my way through the stitches I get more ideas and what-if thoughts.





The balls really fascinate me. I can't tell before what I'll do with them - they lead themselves to be embroidered.

CQJP February block

Here's my February block - plus addition - the frame for my royal lady. I'm really wondering where this all will lead to :-))






In the meantime I'm stitching biscornues and balls. A friend of mine way back from school days offered to organize an exhibition for my quilts in summer. Three days! Ask me, I'm so exited! It's just one room, but I think I can fill it with my "works". Since she suggested it would be nice to have something to sell, too, I thought of making small items as I can't let go of my quilts (they are part of my life and my artist devellopement). Maybe some felted bracelets will be a good addition. So I'm busy, busy, busy......

Don't the first ones look good?

Happy New Year!

Why did we have to stay up this late????

Some kind of addiction

Instead of doing nescessary (!) things I couldn't help creating this lady that was waiting hidden in my stash. So here she is, waiting for her prince....

Maybe there's a medical term for this???? Though I think it's pretty healthy.

Berry Stitch

A very fast version of berry stitch - somehow time flies and in the evening I'm pretty astonished that another day is over (especially if it gets dark so early!)

There's so much left to do .....
But first of all the walk with my dogs, what else!!
