Two more and the list still is huge

In one month, the show will be over. This has been busy and too consuming. Of course, I've let it consume me. I'm getting down to nitty gritty things to do ... make labels for quilts, make hanging devices, send out postcards and emails, buy lights and little things. Enough already! Years ago, I had a recurring dream that my to-do list had legs and was chasing me down a long road. That dream has not returned, but I feel the nagging list on the counter yelling at times. That's when I have to remind myself that this is a really good thing to do and I am on schedule.

But I want to play more. I want to go see the Stephanie Plum movie when it comes out this week. I want to do a jigsaw puzzle. I want to figure out what to do with all my twinchies. Soon.

Today I finished another bag and the Winter Trees. I am pleased with the Trees

As I finished the quilting, I saw that the outer border did not lay quite as flat as I wanted. So, I stuck it in hot water for a few minutes and laid it flat to dry. Not only did it flatten out, it also got more textured. The trees look more real and want to be touched. Here's a bit of detail that shows the quilting.

Tomorrow I will work on a new method for hanging one quilt and see what else I can do on the list. It's going to rain so I'll probably stay inside all day and maybe play a bit.
