back from a long long quiltless spell

Hi Everyone,
Its been many a day I had anything to report quiltwise and that
explains my absence from the group for a few years, plus trying to get a
business going took up all my free time as well. Now tho, I am back, and
glad to see so many familiar faces as well as so many new ones. I still
wont have time to post much but wanted to share that I am now working on
two quilty projects and a new hobby, rugs! The first quilt is a Storm
at Sea, in blues and white, not sure what size it will be but it will
have a heart in purple. The second is a WIP that stalled out some time
ago, a lovely fresh colored quilt for my daughter. Im adding vines to it
currently and will post pictures when its farther along. I've missed
piecing a lot, but even more the process of picking fabrics. Thats my fave!
Ive always wanted to make a rug but wanted someone to teach me and
met someone online who was willing to set up their web cam and let me
watch the process. I'm making a type called tufted rugs, similar in
style to a hooked rug but made with yarn. Again, its the process of
picking the colors and figuring out the design thats the part that
thrills me, tho working the tool is great, its like painting with yarn.
No pictures available yet but I hope to have some later today.
Id like to take a moment to point you towards a quilty product a
friend of mine makes. She is an Etsy seller as well and makes the most
beautiful quilt block pendants. Her user name is BlossomArts and she is
a peach, even if she isn't a quilter.
You've all kept me company during the dry spell.. I have appreciated
it more than words can say.
Hugs!
Diana

So good to hear from you again, and to know you're alive and well! Can't
wait for quilt photos, they both sound lovely. The rug project is
interesting too!

Lovely to hear from you Diana! Glad you are still creating! I wanted to tell
you that I did make a quilt in the Pattern you sent me. I call it my Bee
quilt, but I can't remember for the life of me what it is really called.
Sort of twisted ribbons.!Thank you anyhow.!! It might be oin my album if its
still there!

Welcome back, Diana! I've got a Storm at Sea started, too. I have a lot
of it cut, now to get at sewing it. I've also done some rugmaking,
though I've been doing locker hooking. It's a good way to use odd strips
of quilt fabric or stuff that you've decided isn't really nice enough to
use in a quilt. Mine are all random strips, though you can do patterns,
too. Google "locker hooking rugs" to find out more about locker hooking.
