Go Big or Go Home keeps being said over and over again in my head. I currently have Step #2 done of Bonnie's Celtic Solstice mystery quilt... HOWEVER....
the other day, when making the bed with new sheets, I made a comment about how nicely Roll Roll Cotton bowl fits our (king size) bed. To which, Paul stated, "Well...not really. The length is good, but it needs to be wider."
So.... do I Go Big or Go Home with Celtic Solstice???
Right now....I'm going small. We'll see what the future holds.
Once all units were pinned and shelved away, I wanted to continue earning my Procrastinator-of-Statistics-Lessons Award, so I swept up the sewing room, and then pulled out Wafer Cookies to finish up. Binding and Label -- that's all that remained.
60" x 71" -- Wafer Cookies |
So, five years after this inspirational picture was snapped while enjoying an afternoon snack,...
...Wafer Cookies finally sees the final stitch.
And now...
Baby back ribs prepped and cooking low-n-slow in the oven...
Laundry under way...
Dishwasher emptied...
Brunch cooked and eaten...
Football on the TV...
... Nah! Statistics STILL will remain on the back burner. I think I'll pull out my crochet hook and find something fun to work on :)
Happy Snowy Sunday!

Congrats on the finished quilt and the finished mystery step!
Procrastination rules! Great finish (finally) for wafer cookies. Was it eeally5 years ago it started? Time sure dies fly. Have you hit enter for Hancocks yet?
You have been very busy! Congrats on a great finish...I really like the quilting design you did.
Good for you for taking time to RELAX for once! You are a great teacher but even you need some time away from the prepping and grading to re-fuel!
LOVE the quilty pics--keep 'em coming!

I love your colors in step two of Celtic Solstice!
At this end of the term I'm sure you have something up your sleeve so that you can deliver some cracking lessons without much planning.
I like the colors of your mysterie!
I do the same mysterie but different colors.
I will follow your blog!

Yay on keeping up with the mystery! So hard to do this time of year! Love the wafer inspiration photo and the quilt! :)
Wow - you are one speedy lady! I can't believe you have them all done. I think you deserve the break in front of the tv with the crochet hook.
Go BIG!!!! Make some more pieces, it will look FANTASTIC on the bed. You can do it. I know you have a week or two off of school right around the corner. :D Lovin the Wafer Cookie idea name. That is cool.
