I need some courage to tackle the quilting part of the challenge quilt. I can only give teasers of what the quilt looks like, because I know at least one quilt guild member reads my blog. :)
I will say it's hand dyed fabrics with black. Never get tired of that combination.
Here's where the real trouble is, plunging in to do the quilting. I even tried warming up on a piece of scrap, but I was nervous after adjusting the tension.
On the last quilt, I got my courage after drinking some hot chocolate laced with some mint alcohol. It was just what I needed to suck up and get over the "ack! What if it goes wrong?!" feeling. Can't do that this time, at 10 weeks pregnant. :P
Oh yeah, it's due Monday! Yikes...

Leah, you will do just fine. Those colors are beautiful together. I can hardly wait to see the finished quilt. Winona
even with just a few teaser photos, I've seen more than enough of your quilts to know that it's gonna look GORGEOUS!
Good luck with the tension! Love from Texas! ~bonnie
Oh, Leah! Don't scare me like that! You mentioned "10 weeks pregnant." Next sentence, "Oh, yeah, it's due Monday." Yikes! lol But I know what you mean. That is a fast turn around! Take a big breath and "zone out"; enjoy the quilting; don't *work* at it. It looks to be a very, very pretty quilt.
Relax, you'll do fine on the quilting.
I hope you'll share pictures once the guild unveiling is over.
Hey Leah, how are you feeling, everything going ok? :) Keep us posted! xoxo melzie
PS stop back by my baby blog you haven't been there since the early weeks ;)
