Wait, what? 

Well, it IS a WIP, even if it's not quilt related.  :)  I wanted to show off my exciting new purchases, not only  a Judy (whose name is Jezebel) but a new back-up sewing machine:




Please say hello to Miss L'Rae.  (I don't know why she wants to be called that either, but I'm afraid.  lol)

Anyway - I got her on Saturday and so far, she's sewed a saucy red linen dress and the beginnings of a coat with no problems.  She runs very smoothly, but is of course not nearly as strong as Pinky (my Juki). 

I did try sewing a binding on "Orange You Glad" and she didn't seem to mind it, but that's not her purpose.  She's for sewing clothes and occasional piecing, and to serve as the aforementioned back up should things go badly wrong with Pinky (which I don't expect).

In the meantime, work continues apace on my new fall coat



And there are going to be some changes to my blog - what I post and what the blog will look like, even how I post - coming soon.  New directions mean new blogging too, apparently.  :)

Talk soon,

Kit

My friend Crystal was talking on her blog the other day about quilting without obligation - in other words, just quilting what you want, when you want - as the spirit moves you.. Although I fully subscribe to the idea - sadly, I am not of that ilk.

From inspiration to...?

What was the inspiration and where did it take the artist? From paint to fabric to photography to paint to fabric to paint...it isn't that it's all derivative, it's that it's all thought and inspiration, and - art. And an artist - any artist - can look at these pieces individual or as whole and come up with... more art.

Wednesday already? How did THAT happen?


I actually don't have anything prepared for WIP Wednesday this week. Last night was the board meeting of Toronto Modern Quilt Guild (of which I am president) and there are exciting things afoot!! I was completely wrapped up in that, and haven't actually done any work for WIP Wednesday that you haven't already seen.

However, when casting about for something to post this morning, I came across this little box of stuff.

Once more - a box of badly pre-cut shapes to a pattern that I can't remember anymore. 

So, now, what will this become?

Stay tuned....

1. Lights and shadows, 2. lights in Bellagio lobby, 3. i paint the light, 4. Blue lights

A flickr search for the word "light" resulted in tens of thousands of ideas.  Here are just four of the dozens that caught my imagination ....

(P.S.  I just LOVE the way this looks!)
