We recently moved from Colorado to New Mexico. Instead of living in the city, we now have almost 8 acres of land surrounding our house, with lots of Pinion trees and scrub. Although we have neighbors, we can't see any of them from our house, or hear any noise they may make. What a difference from having to listen to neighbors dogs barking at all hours, and blaring car stereos all day. Of course, I can't just run to the closest quilt shop if I am in need of something for my current project as easily, but the benefits of living in the "middle of nowhere" out weigh any negatives of not being close to a quilt store.
I have an out building that is going to become my new Studio, and as soon as it's finished, I can start to unpack all my fabrics and machines and get back to sewing. My first project, as I'm unpacking, is to make a list of all my UFOs and projects that I had to put on hold for the move. Hopefully that will give me the incentive to get them finished, and add new ones to my list.
My intention is to start posting to my blog again, if for no other reason than to have a place to keep track of my projects, and the progress I'm making on them. Perhaps, my postings will be of interest to others, and I will gain some followers along the way.
I will leave you with a picture of a small Lone Star quilt I was working on before we moved. It still needs to be finished and quilted, but the flimsy is done.
Until next time... Happy Crafting!!!
