Someday I'll bring these two elements together in some glorious quilty (sorry, to-do list!) but I'm just still enjoying exploring. It's kind of nice to do something over and over again, exploring the same form again and again but trying new directions and ideas. I've been meaning to try this plus sign design for a while (ever since
making this back in January), and thank goodness I have the perfect excuse now - a lovely little lady due in January 2011.
And then I made a little blackbirdy something for a birthday gift. I'm lovin the asterisk - speaking of future explorations. This was also a lovely experiment in hand stitching. Boy, when hand stitching doesn't totally annoy me, it's kinda nice. And hey, wait a minute: is that a plus sign? Way down there in the corner....
I've already commented on your quilt top on flickr, but I'll say it again-- I love it! That berry color is fabulous, and I love the layout. That bird mini is super cute too!
