Well - it's done! At least for now. My goal over the past few days was to get all the applique done and then get it all pieced. Well, it is! It's in one piece - a completed quilt top! I must say that this particular quilt has been a thorn in my side. Not that I don't love it - it's just another quilt that had a deadline. It is the cover of my next Rhapsody companion book with C&T. Just like many of you, my plate gets full. Also, my inspiration changes - doesn't yours? Like right now I'm all jazzed about the upcoming Christmas concert and I WANT to be arranging and producing music - but this quilt HAD to get done. So.... I bucked up and dove in head first.
Now, as you can see the quilt has a very "Southwestern" influence. It is called Raven and the Wind (I'll let you make up the story). I'm sure you saw the raven (and the wind) but did you also see the Kokopelli and the thunder birds?
Nitey nite all - It's up at cock-a-doodle -doo for a drive to Arizona for our Super Quilt Seminar this weekend in Mesa. - but at least this quilt is not hanging over my head now. Don't you love that feeling?
