As I wrote in the last post, I had some days of and I just closed my eyes for a second - the days are over.
But that doesn´t matter. I have the feeling that I got much things done and one the other side so many things happened that inspired me extremely for the upcoming time. There will be a big change in my life, I don´t want to write about it until it is absolutely sure, but with this in mind I can go on with my work much more happy and inspired than the last months.
I will tell you soon...
I also managed to finish some things of the list from last post:
This is the finally finished Kaleidoscope Quilt top.
I absolutely love it, and it is so big, that I think I am going to go with a simpe solid fabric for the back.No more piecing. I have two blocks left, maybe these will go into one or two pillows, we´ll see.
Here you can see two blocks I made for Julia in the Bee Germany.
She asked for the circle of geese block and a block of our choice. I decided on a block with the most important thing in life: LOVE
Further on I put together the blocks of my month of the bee Europa, which were inspired by a fiftiish painting by an
artist I found on flickr. I won´t show it until it is finished, I need some more blocks, as it will be a curtain for my appartement door and is still not big enough.
And I made a cute little block for Ceri in the Bee Europa aswell.
She asked for a block with a flower for a quilt for her daughter. I made something 3Dish as I know that little hands like to touch and feel things. I hope they both like it.
I didn´t piece my snails trail blocks. I am waiting for the last two, but I don´t mind, as there are enough other things on the worktable....
Ok thats it girls. I will spent the rest of the evening listening to the
Parlotones, one of my favorite bands, their songs are melancholic but at the same time strong, that they make me happy and optimistic when I hear them...
Take Care!
and besides that I met Tacha, Katy and Brioni and had a blast at their stand of Fat Quarterly giving out there cards.
The next good(or bad) thing was the fabric which could be bought at many many booths. For sure I could not resist and bought some nice little cuties. For example this wonderful fatquarter set from Simply Solids, Mandy the owner is a really nice and funny person!!! And at the end I learned how to make hexies in a very nice workshop.

I am absolutely looking forward seeing the finished quilt lying on my bed (maybe in three months...?) There is so much to do at the moment, that I do my quilting stuff in the night hours. Why is the summer always so stuffed with work? I absolutely would love to hang around with friends in the park making a barbecue and just relax. But at the moment its not possible. I really want to look after me, and give me the time I need to relax, but it is hard at the moment. The hours I sew are the only time when I can do that a little bit, but I feel how I need the sun ( my workstudio is Souterrain).
