| Magic Boxes |
A few days into the new year and I'm thrilled to say... I've got two finishes down!
Curated Quilts is hosting a mini quilt challenge where you use the colors :leaf green, blue grey, black, orchid, light grey, and medium grey. The deadline is January 10th (so I'm REALLY proud of my very early finish) so there's time left if you'd like to partake in the fun. If you live on the east coast - you've probably got some extra time on your hands. We got about 8-10 inches of snow yesterday and it was beautiful but simultaneously.... frustrating. We lost power overnight but thankfully it was restored yesterday. In enough time for me to complete both of these....

Because I'm an overachiever - I couldn't make just one. Plus with a size of 10" square up to 16" square ---- it's small enough to be able to make that deadline.
My first entry is all about 3 dimensions. My grandson saw it on my design board the other day and said - Nana - you're a magician!! How did you make those boxes come off the wall? So that one was a hit. Anytime you can get an 8 year old boy to comment on a quilt - it's got to be good. I named it
Magic Boxes just for him.
My second entry was a result of looking at the fabric scraps and thread (sitting all over my workspace) while binding my first entry. I couldn't resist - so as soon as I finished Magic Boxes .... I jumped right on to it. It's a love note to my husband. It's called
I Could Never Untangle You From My Heart.
