back at it?
Posted on November 2nd, 2007 at 2:26 pmHi. Anyone still here?
I’ve been in such a funk lately, but I’m hopeful it’s lifting. I’ve wanted to do nothing but hide under my desk for weeks. Wrockstock did a lot to help me cheer up, but then I fell ill on the drive home. Now I’m feeling pretty good if not a bit congested and gross.
Today there was crafting! Well, part of yesterday and then this morning. Behold, my first attempt at paper piecing:
Mom-in-law dropped off a shopping bag full of scraps from one of her quilter friends this weekend, so there was pah-lenty to work with. Then Jen posted her most recent block pattern and I went to work. I’m so happy.
If you haven’t seen Jen’s stuff before, please consider checking out the hp_paperpiecing LJ group.
Anywho.. I’ve got a few fun things in the works so here’s hoping I stay on this side of the desk for awhile.

Yep, here. Paper piecing was one of the things I liked most about quilting. Sadly it all fell victim to the knitting obsession.
Glad you’re feeling better!

I don’t even know what paper piecing is, but that looks great to me! Hope you feel better soon.

Good job on the paper piecing! It’s easy, isn’t it? I have some books on the subject if you want to learn the basics to design your own.
