I recently decided to re-enter
the workforce on a part time basis.
The decision was purely to satisfy my need
to be around people
(other than my Little Person everyday).
Once I made the decision,
I had a job offer within two days
and I started work immediately!
So with that being said,
now I truly cherish EVERY moment that I get to spend
in front of my sewing machine!
I finally sat down and finished sewing on the
binding of my SNIPPETS quilt.
Here is what my latest creation looks like:
I love how the 1 inch strips breaks up the design.
I used Fig Tree fabric for the backing.
I used Fig Tree fabric for the backing.
When I made this quilt, I wasn't sure what
I was going to do with it.
However, the other day I laid it down on top
of my sewing machine
and it looked pretty good.
So, I think that I will add some ties to
the sides of it
and turn it into a sewing machine cover.
(I'll let you know how it turns out!)

The quilt looks great. Funny how you can lay it over something and you realize that it's found it's home!!
