I think I am lucky who have not experienced a writer's block before,
but when it struck, it struck long and hard. It has been unpleasant, for months, with a lot of thinking I want to write, I want to write, but I just can not find my writing mojo.......
Starting to write again feels like breaking in a new pair of shoes, and I am looking forward to the writing process getting in flow mood again.
I have been busy with the needle through 2016, and focusing mainly on Ufos, and have many finishes to show for it. Luckily I have never experienced a quilter's block - I hope I do not jinx myself by saying that...... I think not!
My plan is to blog sort of backwards, starting with my latest finish, the Some Kind of Wonderful quilt - My Favorite Things, a stitch-along from several years ago (2011- ), hosted by Chookyblue on Stitch-A-Long
I am so in love with all Anni Downs' designs, and this one is no exception.
This is my first big quilt all needleturn appliqued. I think I really love this quilt even more now than when I started it. Meeting Anni in Norway was special too!
Merete Ellingsen has done the machine quilting.
Wherever you go,
go with all your heart!
go with all your heart!
That's a wonderful finish. Thank you for sharing it . Good to see your writer's block is over

such a beautiful quilt you have completed here, as you say Anni is an amazing designer. Good to see you back on your blog, have been keeping up with you on instagram, struggle to comment on that though as have o do that from tablet, lap top does not offer comments just the like button. it is so easy not to post I have been neglectful both on blog and instagram but still following what everyone else is doing
ReplyDeleteWritersblock I think many of us have had one of those! The most important thing is that you are back! WIth a gorgeous quilt! Enjoy your weekend, do hope you have found your flow again, always fun to read what's happening way up North!

I understand you, writersblock I have experienced. Like you I have been away for a while. Your quilt is so beautiful and I'm looking forward seeing some more of your UFOs finished and reading your blog. Great job on this one.
ReplyDeleteLets hope we don't get sewing- or quiltingblock LOL
Welcome back. I think most of us have nothing to say at times. I know I do. Love your quilt and look forward to seeing your other finishes! :-)
