March 4


Look what I made today. At 15 x 19" (38 x 48cm), it's a little small to be a t-towel. Everyone who saw it thought it should be the start of a quilt. I did get a whole bunch more t-shirt donations at work today, so a quilt could be in the offing. I also feel a tutorial coming on.

I am loving the slow pace of hand sewing, yet the relative speed of producing something "finished". It's a perfect combination of meditation and gratification. My satisfaction is compounded by the prettiness of the result and the zero cost of the materials. It's all good.
