I laid out the 2 x 2's that were so lovingly created by the artists, admiring each one. Also included was a "wad" of fabrics and beads. As I plucked through the fabric bits and pieces I found myself chuckling out loud. It suddenly occurred to me that I was softly touching each piece as if it were gold and I too have a "wad" of fabric on my studio floor that I have yet to sweep up and carry out to the trash!
I have felt creatively starved over the last week so I began to lay out my 10 x 10 quilt square that will make it's way back to Monica, Girl Gone Thread Wild, created into a wall art quilt, sent into Quilt Art Studio a new magazine from Stampington & Companies and auctioned off for the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Awareness Foundation.
I've titled my piece, "Take Flight".
You'll see why when it's finished up. By the way it isn't even due until Dec.1! And yes, I have begun. Why? It's called creative avoidance because I have more yucky cushions to sew!

I have had my envelope ready and waiting for me behind glass doors. I see it daily. My fabric side is chomping at the bit to spill out its contents again and release the muse. Soon!
Ah yes, the junk "wad"....I know it well!

I can't wait to see what you create. It will be gorgeous I am sure. Another beautiful project. Karen
Yes! You do have one of my inchies among your creative stash from Monica. I too received my package and hid it safely away until I knew I could concentrate on just that. Tonight I finish my CQ classes, and after a few commission items, I am ready to create! Hopefully in two weeks it will be on it's way back to Mon.
