Computer is home from it's hospital stay - the Photo App had disappeared - how could that have happened? Plus a few other issues from ME trying to fix things, making a bigger mess. 8-( It seems that every year, I have to take it for some kind of R & R at the local computer hospital, and get "something" fixed. Computer physicians are very kind and diplomatic and never say things like "operator error".
I am a quilter - a retired widow living in the Nebraska Panhandle. I am surrounded by beautiful semi-arid ranch country, and treeless hills and fields under incredibly wide blue skies, located far from the upheaval found often in large towns or cities. I am blessed to have delicious time to quilt and to appreciate my peaceful moments in an unpeaceful world.

Pineapple in Purple, for REAL, this time - no more complaints, for now
Yes, another Pineapple, Scrappy, and mostly in shades of purple. Center quilting design was a series of paisleys (I quilt on my DSM). Just cannot resist Pineapple Quilts, especially when we end up with so many strips. The binding was completed by machine, with a flange. One problem is that I had the entire border all nicely quilted with a nice meander and even after one side, I had begun to doubt that decision. Guess I was on GO and didn't stop until it was DONE -- and it looked terrible! The quilting itself was quite decent - it just was NOT a good choice in that border so I removed it all and redid with some simple straight lines -- so much better and simpler.
Quilt Guld restarts in a few weeks after summer vacation. This year I'm giving a Trunk Show and also teaching a workshop on the Kaleidoscope ideas. It's always lovely to get back to that routine.

ReplyDeleteI'm so happy you got the computer problem solved. I have missed seeing your quilts.
ReplyDeleteThank you Wanda - these pesky electronics are wonderful when working but so irritating when not! "These are the times that try women's souls" or something like that!
DeleteWhat a lovely colorway! Glad you could get the quilting to come out as you wanted.
