Do YOU dream in quilts??

Sneak peak of Viola's Halloween quilt



Un-filled shoe must wait for tomorrow

Cobblestone shoe - isn't it cute!

I thought you all might like to watch the progression of this quilt. It is the cutest thing! Viola made it and gave us "free rein" to quilt it as we chose. Let me just tell you that this is so much fun! Tonight we mounted the quilt on the frame, did the top border and started working on the witches' shoes. Aren't they the cutest shoes -- since it was such are large piece of solid black for each shoe, we felt it needed some texture. This is actually a "cobblestone" block but Edie and I think it resembles Edie's leather shoes that she was wearing. (She's already gone home so I can't get a pix of her shoes for you now!) Compare the blank shoe vs the cobblestone shoe -- looks pretty good, huh? Viola, I hope you like it! The second shoe will get stitched tomorrow night -- a girl's gotta sleep a little bit! But, I'll probably dream about this quilt tonight. I "dream" in quilts, how about you? To many people the question is "Do you dream in color"? To me, the answer has always been - "Of course, do you dream in quilts"? So, on that note, I'll put myself to bed for another colorful, quilt-filled dream!
