I Crossed My Last Stich!



For this project at least. Remember when I started these over a year ago...? :) They're all done. If my optimistic thinking is right [ If I cross-stich it, he will come] Mr. Amazing Eternity Manly Man will be coming along any day now. Like, tomorrow. Or yesterday.... Or whenever. Whenever is fine too... :o

(PS - Don't mind the wrinkles. I was too lazy to get out the iron. ;) )

I now will commence on my hunt for fabric and quilting designs! AND!! I'll finally bust out the sewing machine I got for my birthday last year. :D I'm not going to lie, the idea of me actually sewing a quilt intimidates me a little. (Maybe a lot.) How hard can it be? It's all straight lines, right? I think it will be one of those "Bilbo Baggins/Striker" moments for me.

Things usually aren't as hard or as bad as I think they will be. I find that I am capable of a lot more than I think I am, and it really isn't that bad! At all :) Fear, it's one of the greatest tools of the adversary, perhaps even tops the list. Being uncomfortable is where change happens.

Wish me luck!! And quilting tips. :)
