I had bought a wedge ruler a while back and the new challenge had me thinking of how to use it in this project. I knew I wanted to use solids and create a project that reflected the way we are feeling these days. Loving our family and friends, feeling a bit scattered and concerned, wondering when this is going to end!
With all that is going on in the world I was thinking of the random acts of kindness we are seeing; people helping people, as well as the hoarding. I choose to believe in the best of people and that we really are vibrant and loving. We can be vivacious while being responsible and social distancing.
I had to pick up some necessary prescription in town and saw a sweet box of tea to gift a dear friend who is shut in due to underlying health issues. Since DH and I both are in the compromised group we are thinking of friends who are as well. The tea is being dropped off on our friend’s doorknob when I go out for my walk this afternoon.
Thank you for dropping by. I hope you enjoyed seeing my topper. Have you had a chance to view some of the incredible creations that have been done for this challenge? I’m heading over to hop around now.
Keep well and wash your hands lots. 😷 Carol

Wedge rulers confound me. You really made yours work for you (and you are really good neighbor, too!!)

The wedge ruler scared me, but this time of being shut in is a time to challenge myself, try new things, get better at things I’m not good at (paper piecing and appliqué) and clear up some UFO’s. My sweet neighbour is enjoying a cup of “liquid hugs” as I’m writing this! Thank you for your sweet comment 😊 Carol
