i am a pack rat. i keep everything. and by everything, i mean, i still have my notebook from English class my senior year of high school with Mr. Fischer. and more. this habit is slightly annoying to my friends and family that have to help me move on a regular basis. i have boxes of stuff they see no use for but i see possibilities in. i know i need all the National Geographic's from my grandparents yard sale in the 90's. and the buckets of sea glass. and sand. and fabric. i have been carrying around an unfinished quilt my crafty grandmother gave me A LONG TIME ago. she was going to throw it away. i was going to finish it. it didn't matter to me the fabric was faded in spots, i wanted it. and it has moved with me every i have gone since she gave it to me 10 or 12 years ago. after seeing these adorable mini quilts that soulemama made i became inspired! i have decided to make a series of mini quilts with the old quilt. this is a perfect plan because the quilt is all squares and lends perfectly to a 3x3 square. and i embellish in all the ways i love, applique and embroidery. this is going to be fun.
