Now that Christmas is over, my house has been undecorated and redecorated in “Winter Blues”, using a few of my favorite “blue” things……
….including this small 12 inch quilt that I made YEARS ago…..

In the studio, I have been working on my Color Wheel quilt……

I have now appliqued most of the circles on and am ready to start putting binding on the edges of the squiggle. The first step is to baste it in place…..

Next I need to make miles of bias binding, and then decide whether I am going to apply it by machine or by hand…… I am leaning toward hand.
Now for my biggest studio news…..
In the upstairs of our house, there is a sitting room just on the other side of the bedroom that holds my studio…….

….and my husband has had the idea of knocking down the adjoining wall and adding about 75% to the size of my studio. We talked to the contractor today and he plans to start sometime toward the end of January. I am pumped!!!!
I have been searching the internet looking for new storage ideas for fabrics and threads and trying to figure out how to build a new cutting table. So many new things to think about!!!!
Now I need to get the Henna Girl and this Color Wheel quilts finished up FAST!!!

cant wait to see your new studio. I really like your “artistic” new quilts. That 12”circle quilt…… I made one just like that several years ago, but it is much smaller and I use it as a mug rug.
That is exciting news. Just think of all the wonderful things you an do with the extra space. Hope it can start soon!
