Seriously, I am having a blast with this.  I am not sure the relative costs of quilting vis-a-vis meth amphetamine but this quilting process, while clearly addictive, is uplifting, exciting and generates a real outcome. Here is a slightly blurry photo of the progress to date.  (I must have been shaking with excitement).  And look who knows if this quilt is actually good, whatever that might mean, but the process of just letting go and not over thinking things has been great.  The fact that you get a quick result also helps keep the motivation levels up.

And I guess I am also more relaxed for not having to work full time.  I have had time to do some stuff around the house, visit my dad, take #2 boy swimming at the beach and do some gardening.  Here are some of mum's hydrangeas from the garden in the Blue Mountains.  I just love that colour of blue.

Can't wait until the 20th to see what everyone else has been up to. Take care S x
