After a rotten weekend of being sick (congestion, allergies, cold, etc, whatever), I thought it important to regroup and remember what I was thankful for on Thanksgiving. It already seems like sooooo long ago, but laying around in bed for two days will do that to a person. I didn't spend time doing anything creative! Not even planning something in my head. What a sad waste of quiet time.
I am thankful for my children, who are finally old enough to realize that leaving me alone when I'm sick is in everyone's best interest.
I am thankful for my husband. No, really!
I am thankful for the roof over my head and the fact that we both have a job.
I am thankful for my family and friends, both in person and cyber!
I am mostly thankful for God, who has blessed me with a creative mind and full heart.
I am also thankful that the ribbon I ordered to tie my quilt came in today!! It is 2mm silk ribbon in "petunia" from
silkribbon.com. I notice that now, after I've ordered, of course, you can get 15% off until December 2nd. I have enjoyed using their Cam Creations silk ribbon in both the colors and the white that I have dyed.
I hope the colors come out right on your screen. This is the backing fabric, a golden green, with the rich, bright pink silk ribbon. I have decided to tie off and try to hid the knots. I am also going to try to just go through the foundation fabric instead of all the way through the front of the quilt. Cross your fingers for that! And thanks to everyone who had a suggestion or comment, either on the blog or my facebook page.
