Heart Strings

I helped my sister out by finishing up a quilt for the Heartstrings Quilt Project. It's a very worthwhile endeavor. Go see the site if you haven't already.

Anyway, this one was one with a lime green center strip. I quilted it doing a freehand swirl pattern, which mimicked the swirls on the backing. I didn't want to print labels, so I just traced one using my fabric paint pens and used some scraps of pretreated fabric I had. Looks cute. This quilt goes to the Guardian ad Litem office in Asheville.

Getting psyched up to watch the NCAA tournament. I am huge fan of both UNC and Ohio State. OSU has a really good chance to win it all this year. Hope being the favorite doesn't jinx them. UNC-Asheville is playing right now, they are the local UNC campus, but don't think they will go on for long.

As long as the games are on my hands will be busy either knitting my socks or hand quilting on a paid piece. This piece is very interesting and challenging. I will tell you all about it next time.

Later,
