While I Was Waiting: frozen

frozen

The name Frozen Pond so aptly suggested by Corrine still holds.

I'm reconsidering my original intent to make 25 blocks. Currently there are 6 blocks, not counting a seventh that has mysteriously disappeared. Now I'm thinking of other possibilities such as 8 blocks placed in rows of two by four, creating a longish cloth. Or maybe a square of a total of 9 blocks, 3 by 3. Still creating them and playing with the possibilities.

In the meantime

it's still frozen outside

on the outside, looking in

on the inside, looking out

Snow, snow, snow. I'm going to post tomorrow about my snow dyeing efforts.; January 24, 2011 at 7:40 PM

when I read your quilt title, my mind supplied a preposition..."On Frozen Pond"...kind of like "On Golden Pond," only not.

Love your work, Deborah! Inspirational, as always!; January 24, 2011 at 10:42 PM

We don't have snow, and I am so grateful. We had a lot more than in average winters. Now it is all gone.
