The one thing about the quilting world is you can just hop around like a crow spotting shiny objects...and, end up with a pile of stuff like a pack rat...having to move the piles around to make more space for more piles. I am blessed though to have a friend who is a true quilting inspiration. Which means I occasionally am inspired to finish something, lol. She actually has a method to her madness which results in finished projects! She never chooses easy quilts...they are all labor intensive. After watching her for a while I started to notice some key patterns:
1) She only makes what she loves.
2) She keeps a few things in visible project piles.
3) She never sits without stitching in her hand.
4) She stitches a little bit regularly on each of her current projects.
5) She always looks ahead and organizes what she needs when a new project is on the horizon.
The result is a breadth of work that is extraordinary! As a quilter I am inspired by those around me who seem to get things done without any shortcuts, lol. I hope you enjoy this slide show of the beautiful work by Linda Hespe as displayed at the QuiltWorks Gallery in Bend, Oregon!
