Log cabin along

Julie K is hosting a log cabin quiltalong and I am joining in.  I have a pile of indigos from my trip to Houston with Bailey and Kevin and Mike last year and I think they would be a great log cabin. Maybe a COurthouse Steps or maybe more traditional. I love the 4-inch size that Julie used. Wish me luck! I have been doing a lot more painting than sewing this year. But that is for another page.

Been a while since I have posted here. but I thought I would stop in and say hi. Hi. I did a little painting this last year. This fisrt group is are some results from a class I took from Amanda Evanston.





 
I also did some encaustics earlier in the year but had to cease due to ventilation issues. I will resume using encaustics in the summer when I can open windows. I also played with India ink, digital images, started a couple of new quilts and submitted three manuscripts to different places. I was sick for a good part of the year - chronic has become a new word in my vocabulary- which made me feel like I wasn't doing much since I could not go very far, but I did a lot of sitting work I guess and we did get to Houston to see Kevin and Bailey and got to go to the quilt show which was so cool.
