When Do We Get to the Doin' Part?
Ok, so I found another thing I want to do when I actually get around to doing stuff!
The quilting on this is rather fun; something my ultra-regulated brain would never think to do. I think quilting this way might actually release some of my perfectionist tendencies and open up my mind to creative possibilities. I love how she describes it as "windy" quilting. Somehow that seems metaphorical of life with young children. I need to know that blowing with the wind, not as a "shaft in the whirlwind", but more like a tree swaying in the breeze of needs and demands, can actually produce beauty. Perhaps the breeze will sway me toward making something like this?
