For most of this day I was a lazy. I didn't do much at all, but play on the computer, watch (listen mostly) tv and fix some breakfast, lunch and dinner. This evening, I am working on studying for College Algebra Final that will be this coming Thursday. This is a hard class for me, for some reason. BIG SIGH!!!! I am hoping and praying to just pass, in order to get into my Dietetic Technician program. If anyone reads this, I would ask for your prayers & good thoughts!
I am looking forward to having a couple months off from school. I plan on doing some quilt designing, piecing and quilting!!! My soul and heart has missed this part of me so very much over the last few years, since I started school. Today I was looking at Pinterest and seeing all the lovely quilts people have 'pinned'. I loved looking at them and getting some ideas.
Traditional quilts, Traditional with a twist and the modern, art-quilts all draw me in... different parts of me are touched and I just want to get to my quilting room and get going!! I don't understand those people who put down the traditional, or the more modern. A few of the online quilt groups I belong to are traditional in outlook, and some have more of a arty or modern outlook. Sometimes, I read comments from someone who really shows disdain for the different mode of working. Like I said, I don't understand that at all. I think one loses some much that they could be learning, by putting down someone else's work, because it isn't what they like to do.
There are some 'arty' quilts I have in mind. Where I live, I can see the Highwood Mountains! I love looking at them every time I drive off our hill and down into town. They change with the seasons, weather, cloud cover and where the sun is in the sky. YET, they are the same. If we ever move from here, I will miss seeing them.
So, my idea is to take a picture, that I can blow up and then design a quilt with the mountains center stage. Then add blocks surrounding them, that remind me of Montana. I haven't set anything to paper yet, but my mind has been going over things for a long time. Hopefully, this summer I'll get to start.
Well, think I will get back to studying. My guys are watching "Raiders of the Lost Ark". WOW, Harrison Ford looks so young!!! Holy Moly, I remember seeing this movie when it first came out!!!
Have a grand day, Dear Reader. Prayers for blessings abundant for you going up.
