Quilting!

Quilting can be a labor of love. To take tiny pieces of fabric and sew them together into interesting patterns and create this huge artistic masterpiece can be a huge undertaking. And then to hand quilt it. HAND QUILT. Yes, that's my decision. 


It has taken me two months to make this top. I have decided to hand quilt this. It might take a year or longer but I want to do it. 

Taking the time to do it by hand will allow myself time for me. To reflect on my day, my kids, my life. To listen to music, catch up on shows, sit with my husband as he plays call of duty 112 or whatever it is lol. It's deliberate time for me.

I think it's smart to have a hobby. Your mind needs to get lost in something you love. It's healthy for your soul.
