Project Quilting 14.6 the Final Challenge

Tish really likes to find challenges that stretch us to be more imaginative or creative. This week was no different: “So this week, you will confront something you fear. Your project must be about growing through exploring the unknown. What? Well, first sit down and ponder your way forward: personally, professionally, creatively, emotionally, or quiteContinue reading “Project Quilting 14.6 the Final Challenge”

PQ 14.4 – A Novel Project

When I first read the prompt for this week’s challenge I thought of doing something to commemorate the book I am currently reading.

I drafted a pattern and checked for theContinue reading “PQ 14.4 – A Novel Project”

It was a fairly easy choice because I had picked up a few towels last year and found them when I was looking for something else. I had an idea of what I wantedContinue reading “PQ 13.3 Kitchen Influence”
