love all year long


Have I really committed to several hundred french knots? Looks that way...

It turns out that one of the UFOs ("blue headless horse" is the unhappy working title) is going to be machine quilted after all, so this one will be my "hands on" work for some time to come.


In case you were wondering, me and my Goodman celebrate Valentine's Day all year round so we don't do the Hallmark hokey-pokey. There will be much boo-hooing in the driveway tomorrow though when he drives off to the mountains for a few months at a work location.

I really like this piece, what I can see of it. :) You'll develop a rhythm to the French knots. I did a lot of candlewick stitching ages ago, and came to love making the knots. We don't celebrate today either. I'd rather have the celebration spontaneous and year long than a box of chocolates on my hips. :)

French knots are my favourite quick way to fill space.

Right now I'm following the woven dots in the cloth but I'm thinking of wandering from that uniformity
