My last plan for this quilt was to make 16 by 16 patch blocks and then arrange them, until I had another plan that was to just put it together and call it finished. So let's call this quilt top finished. I had a momentary lapse where I thought maybe it needed a border...maybe some quiet space and then more postage stamps. But then I remembered that although its on the small side (finished stamp size is .75 inches), it weighs as much as a large quilt.
Despite a bright sunny day, I had quite a bit of trouble taking a good photo of this quilt top. Sometimes my camera does a better job, but this time I went with the phone. (I would not have understood this sentence for most of my life.)
Here is a close up.
It's seeing the close ups that remind me what fun this quilt top was to make.
And here is a reminder to savor the quiet moments.

ReplyDeleteAmen, and thanks for the reminder of how fast technology has run roughshod over our lives!
My girl-cat Zoe certainly resonates with Molly at the moment.

Technology sure has changed our lives. Who knew a phone would be used for tasks other than calls! Your postage stamp top is stunning!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe it's finished! It seems like you've been working on this since before phones could also be cameras! It's wonderful! (Give Molly some scritches for me, please?)
ReplyDeleteWithout technology, I wouldn't be able to see your stunning quilt! And I'd miss the sweet photo of your kitty!
ReplyDeleteDo not be fooled by this quilt into making it bigger. It is perfect just the way it is!
ReplyDelete(It's easy to be sucked in by quilts - every time I see a photo of someone's Garden Party, I'm almost overwhelmed with an urge to make another...)
