Before we start this craziness, I want to answer a question from last week's post. The Eiffel Tower cross stitch is by Jardin Privé (France), the two Redwork embroideries are by Bird Brain Designs, and I can't remember who the other cross stitch is by, but I got it from Acorn n' Threads in Portland, Oregon...so give them a call :) What can I say, right now there is sheer chaos in our lives...family moving, road trips being planned, deadlines for quilts and projects to be done. I don't know about you, when life seems out of control I go to my happy place. But, if your project list is as long as mine and you know who you are...the UFO (unfinished objects), WIP (Work in Progress), PIGs (projects in grocery sacks) can add a whole other layer of stress.
And so...I have been a bit quiet...thinking...and, I came up with a solution (crazy I know) and that is to start an entirely new project!!! Sometimes you need to stop looking at the same old projects that are moving along at a snails pace and freshen up the view. Kind of like taking a vacation and seeing new sights! You always come home refreshed and ready to pick up where you left off.
Here is where I need your help!!! I want to take the stress out of choosing a project by letting you decide for me!!! I am soooo laughing out loud right now. I am ready to be free from the decision and will start whichever project gets the most votes!
1. The Rainy Day Quilt by Laundry Basket Quilts?
2. White Christmas by Farmhouse Threads
3. Just a Buzz n by Crane Designs

Winner of $1,000.00 for 1st Place: Traditional, Large, Pieced - Road to California 2017
Started in 2013, Finished in 2016
Design basis: Original
Artist statement: This quilt evolved from a class taken by Gail Garber on drafting star blocks. I loved the idea of the off-center stars and wanted to use some beautiful silk fabrics my friend Beth Nufer gave me one year at Road. I love embellishing and had a great time in Madison, Wisconsin during Quilt Expo visiting bead shops in the area to find things that would carry out the theme. Appropriately named by my friend Linda Naughton from Duluth, MN.
