But that doesn’t mean I won’t dream and obsess over it.
Today I picked up the October 2011 issue of American Patchwork & Quilting. It seems every time I’m at the store I gravitate to this issue. Occasionally, I pick it up and flip through it, only to set it back down. I don’t need to start another quilt. I don’t really want to start another quilt. But today that didn’t stop me from buying the magazine.
There’s something about the cover quilt — well, the quilt on the cover of my copy of the Oct issue. It seems there are two different covers. The quilt I’m drooling over is Star Formation. It’s simple, scrappy and stunning. I’m not sure if it’s the color – love the blue and gold – or the quilting. Whatever it is, I want to make that quilt!
OK, now that I have that off my chest, I’ll go back to work on True Friends. I finished the extra 5 blocks I needed and have the first two rows sewn together. I may have even found something to use for the backing or binding. There’s not enough for both.
You got the same cover as I did. I wish I had the other cover- it was Jo Morton’s Quilt. I’m resisting too.
