It's gorgeous! Can I ask you a question? You've mentioned on this blog and in your Podcast you wake up very early to get in some quilting time, like 4 am? What time do you go to bed? I, like you, work f/t, and have a young daughter, +1 on the way. I just cannot seem to find the time to "create" as much as I'd like to. I may have to suck it up and get up an hour earlier (which would be 5 am) but I think it would take me 30 minutes of the hour just to prop open my eyes, much less get in creative mode. What's your secret? TIA!
@ Tanesha - in a word? caffeine! lot's of caffeine. :-)
Also - I try to go to bed before 10 each night so I get at least 5-6 hours of sleep. Any less than that, and I couldn't function. Give it a try for a week or two - takes some getting used to. Let me know how it goes!
the quilt is lovely, it is on my list of quilts to make, along with the zig-zag and so many others. also your idea of getting up early to fit crafting in sounds great, i am thinking that i will try that, with being able to dvr shows i enjoy to watch later, i could even quilt while listening to "the view" or "oprah".
It's lovely and will promote many sweet dreams!

ReplyDeleteThe quilt is beautiful! I like the colors that you have in the quilt. It totally fits a princess room. Did you make the canopy as well?
ReplyDelete@boltonlane - No, I did not make the canopy. It came from Ikea. Love that store!
