This Pastel Idea

At the end of every quiltmaking session the studio looks like a bomb went off. I spent some time putting away the remains and finding the fabrics for the next piece I have in mind. This one will be for one of the newly painted bathroom walls. I want to go really really light, using pastels with hints of color, and that means using some of the pieces I dyed last summer. Of course they will be balanced with colors that are a little bit more saturated, but the challenge is to not overwhelm the palest ones. Tough for me, no doubt.
One must use conflicting colors once in a while to spark up the scheme and that middle blue one is definitely conflicting. All the new stuff needs to be fused, so I'll be cranking up the iron today...if my arm allows it.


  It seems I have once again overknitted. How can one tell when too much knitting has caused injury? When the right arm throbs all night and is still demanding attention in the morning. Yup. I qualify.

Looks like I will be putting this latest Eternity on hold for a few days. I have only two more on my list after this one, so I think I can make them all before Christmas gets much closer.

I have not heard from the design firm, yea or nay, about my remake. So much for hurrying up.
