"When my boys were babies I spent much of my day singing to them. Maybe that's why they are both musicians today.
My favorite song to soothe them to sleep was "You are my Sunshine". You know that song...
"You are my sunshine, my only sunshine,
You make me happy, when skies are gray.
You never know dear, how much i love you,
Please don't take my sunshine away."
I digress into happy memories, but the song inspired the quilt. Now that I look at it I'm wondering if those good drugs I got last week are making me nuts. The quilt is supposed to be for a friend's new baby.
Why did I think that a round quilt would be a good idea? She's young, hip and fun and I think she'd like something a little different, but really? This?
I don't know. It's 40" in diameter, so it's not tiny, but is it practical, usable? You young moms out there, could you use this? I guess I could applique it to something, or take it apart and make templates for the corners....ack...I thought a round quilt would be cool, but now it just seems weird.
I'm spending International Quilting Day (today!!) sewing with no distractions. My hubby is out of town...a quiet house, a humming sewing machine and my dog. Maybe today I can get something done!
Oh and good news...according to my SPAM, I won the lottery in the UK. If only.
