Each Thursday and Saturday are laundry days at our house. Today is Thursday...I generally dread this day but today I am inspired to take on the task and to do it with joy. The day started out as usual. breakfast, prayer, etc...then I faced "the giant"...literally the giant pile of laundry (8 loads!) in my hallway. Daunting. I separated all of the laundry and went (mentally griping all the way) to the laundry room closet to start the first load...when who did I see peering out from between the hanging coats but Our Lady herself! Here's a picture to prove it. It is amazing how an image can change your entire outlook. I see this image every time I open the laundry closet door but today it touched me in a new way. I sometimes have a hard time relating to Our Lady because...well because she's PERFECT! AND she has ONE child who also happens to be PERFECT! But today it hit me...Mary had a LOT of work to do that because of modern conveniences I do not have. I mean I stress over eight loads of laundry but in order to wash her family's clothes she had to work HARD...ALL DAY...hunched over a bucket or stream...scrubbing with her bare hands...knowing she still had dinner to prepare (no fast/frozen food back then ladies and gents) and despite all of this she did not have a thought of complaint but instead said "Fiat", "let it be done to me according to Your Word". What a woman! I want to be more like her! So today I am just grateful. I guess eight loads in my automatic washer and electric dryer aren't as bad as I thought...after all.

Today my design wall is empty! Why? Well, because the quilt is finished!!! Here is Moonglow in all her glory…. Isn’t she just absolutely gorgeous??? That Jenny Beyer knows her stuff for sure! This was my UFO Challenge quilt for April (& May) - it took two months to complete it, but I am so glad I decided to just continue it until I was done. Whew!!! It's a good thing I took this picture early Saturday morning, because it started to rain just after and we’ve not seen a dry sky since! Laying it out on the patio was the only way to get the majority of the quilt in the picture. At some point I will get some friends to hold it so I can get a picture of it square on. :*) The borders were actually not as much trouble as I had feared, but they did take a ton of time! There were seven of them (as I'm sure you remember from my previous whining!), each 1-3/4” wide, starting and ending with the black fabric. The in-between colors radiate out to echo that “glow” look in the blocks. And by the way, my friend Denise at Count It *All* Joy helped me see my "whining" in a whole new light.... " that's not whining; it's running commentary on the whole creative process, good and bad. It makes for explicit, dramatic, and thorough documentation. LOL!!!" Yes!!! What she said!!! So, ahem, uh .. to get back to the business at hand.... Each border was cut 3-1/2” longer than the one before it. Then I sewed them together, staggering the edges in 1-3/4" on each edge. I also reversed the direction as I sewed the strips together to keep them from curving from the feed dog action. I learned that little trick while making the Twisted Bargello! I pressed the seams all toward the inside on two of the borders and toward the outside on the other two, so that I could nest them when I did the mitering. This helped a ton in getting those seams to meet perfectly! When the borders were all sewn together as one unit, I marked a quarter inch in on the tips of the corners of the quilt, and began sewing the border units on each of the four sides, stopping and starting at the mark. Then all that was left was mitering the border corners for a nice finished look! It was so late when I finished this part that I forgot to take pictures, but here is the finished result. Whew! What a huge job done and off my shoulders!!! It will need to sit for a while now as I figure out what I want to do for backing fabrics and quilting designs. Also, it is possible that I may end up adding another border to it! My husband likes the quilt so much that he wants us to perhaps put it on our bed!!! He says it is the only quilt I’ve made so far that can rival Bargello :*) But in order to do that, it needs to be slightly larger as it is only 86” square. Let’s see, let me think about that…. for a good long while!!!! Well, at least a few weeks. I really need to work on something else for a while in order to keep my sanity, if you know what I mean :*) That’s it for me. I don’t have anything else on my design wall yet, but next week I’ll start posting process pictures of Vintage Valentine! It’s going to be so much fun to do this sweet applique after all the intense piecing of Moonglow! Have a marvelous week my friends!!! I'm off now to have a little therapy time with my sewing buddies :*) The first lady on the left is Linda, and we will be without her for the next 6 months because she goes to Wisconsin for the summers. Take care Linda and we'll see you in October!!! You can go HERE to Patchwork Times to see what others have on their design walls! Also linking up with What a Hoot for BOM's Away!
