Progress

Here is the progress on the Circle of Life quilt.Now I just need to piece the center circle piece to this outside New York Beauty arch piece and the middle part is done. I have four sawtooth borders to piece and this quilt is almost done. I just have to quilt "as desired."

May is done

May's Bead Journal Project is complete and I am making progress on the Circle of Life quilt.I have even gotten some spring cleaning accomplished.This piece is called May's Maze and is one of three of the series complementery colors.

Here is the progress on 'my distraction'.I need to piece these outside arches into the background and piece the borders.Still a work in progress.
I also made a small piece as a special thank you to a friend. She loved the "Rock Circles" she said it reminded her of camping.So I made her her own campground.
March and April are done and I am doing a series of the elements but with a twist.January was frozen WATER.February was AIR, the air way up in the atmosphere and how it looks up there. March is Earth and the tiny particles that make up EARTH. I am also doing my interpretation of the seasons and that is April's theme of spring. I call March "Rock Circles"
and I call April"Tiptoe through the Tulips" I am happy to be all caught up and inspired by the beautiful beading everyone is doing.

My distraction





In the middle of February I decided to begin work on a quilt that has been "aging"
on the shelf.So I dug in on Valentine's day and began a colorful journey on The Circle of Life quilt.I have been busy and my blogs have suffered.It's a trade off-to bead or to quilt or to blog?Blogging usually loses.Ahhh there are only so many hours in a day.Here is my distraction quilt in progress...

February is Done




Here are some photos of the work in progress of my BJP for February and the final piece.
