What a thrill to hang her up. No wall space to put it in but I found that a couple of quilting pins through the stitch in the ditch and I could attach it to the valance over the window. 
Looks awesome and vitalizes me when I look at her.I don't often keep my work, in fact, they are usually started as a gift in mind. My WWWWoman was just that. Started in 2002 as a Christmas gift, never finished, gift not needed, I love her, she is mine!
Now on to the original UFO Challenge project - Stairway to Dreams. It still sits on the chesterfield looking forlorn and dejected. Never mind, you will come out of the bag tonight and be aired for a tomorrow start.
I have also finished up my special project that can't be shown yet as it is a gift for a dear friend. It goes to the finishers next week. Received notice that my Enchanted Sleigh is finished as well. Now to get it mailed to me so that I can finally see it. The shop people are raving about it and how it looks. I can hardly wait. Will have it sent to the park where we are going to the Rally so will have it by the beginning of Monday week.
As for Cleo's Cat, nothing new to report.
Shirley, your Wild and Wacky Woman is simply delightful! Isn't it amazing that we keep so few of the quilts make? To me, quilts are for giving. I race through to the end so I can see, hopefully, the joy it brings to a friend or loved one. So, yes, keeping a treasure now and then has got to be one of the rewards we give ourselves -- and don't we, too, show joy in getting a gift!
ReplyDeleteI agree totally. There is nothing better than seeing delight and joy on someone's face when they receive a gift of any kind. To me that makes everything so worth while. I guess that is why I find Christmas my favorite holiday.
