Isn’t she lovely?

This might be another example of procrastination, but I did manage to do one of the things on today’s to-do list. I set off through the snow and made it to the quilting shop. It wasn’t too bad a drive coming back, but getting there was white knuckles all the way. I can’t tell you how eager I am for spring to finally show some signs of coming.

Number one on my to-do list was to have a look at a serger. Which I saw, but haven’t made up my mind yet. I have to go back next Saturday when the serger expert is there for me to pick her brain. It was good to get a feel of pricing in advance though. I actually might even drive to the States and pick one up there; prices are so much more reasonable for certain things, especially with the Canadian dollar being stronger these days.

What I did pick up was this wonderful piece of fabric. It’s a Michael Miller fabric, in case anyone’s wondering. The repeat is 24″ wide and perfect to become a wall hanging.

I think she’s going to become trapunto. I couldn’t possibly cut into it. Which is my downfall, always. I can never seem to cut into a piece of fabric that I love.

She does speak to me though : “Make me 3D!”

Yes, that would be lovely in 3D!

She’s been mounted on the frame and is ready to stuff … and maybe even bead! Something for me to do at the Stitch and Bitch.
