W.I.P, part 2

well, i have about 2 weeks to go and i have gotten as far as laying out all the blocks. Now i have to cut the joining strips(the blue). This is the part that is killing me. I am trying not to be frustrated and push on with it. I do like how it has made it's own repeating pattern.

p.s, i am paralyzed with fear. i thought i would work on the quilt more this afternoon, but the analysis paralysis has stopped me dead in my tracks.. Chris says i just need to jump in and do it, i know that is right but i can not make myself...ugh.

I wondered what you meant about the blue--until I expanded the photo. Just think what a sense of accomplishment you will have when you finish. I bet Mitchie loves it.

i hope he will like it. he has been asking for a pirate quilt for a long time. I am kind of doing it around him and he has not noticed it is for him yet.

Leslie, when you set your mind to something, you do it and do it well! Once you start it will work out easier than you anticipated. You can do it!!

Oh, I forgot to mention how I really like your "fish". I saw them this morning and was a bit memerized. I would have watched them more but I had to head to work.

Try teasing them, not with food, but with the cursor. It's silly fun.

Leslie said...
