Thursday Threads - Grasses Return 06-15-17

This is a little 12" X 12" quilt made for the SAQA auction back in 2007.  So, it is in someone's collection.  I like to make these little quilts for fund raisers, but don't seem to be inspired the last few years.

Love this little quilt. Just pull a few pieces of fabric....sit at your machine and start sewing them together...cut them apart and resew them in another direction.....it's a start to renewed inspiration! Have fun!

I also need to follow Loretta's advice!

Here is the most recent Incidental Comics cartoon by Grant Snider (just substitute "quilter" for "writer"). This cartoonist is worth following; I love his work.
