I hope all my US friends are enjoying a nice holiday
weekend. I am having a lovely time thinking about my new quilt which I HAVE to
call Twitter. Here’s the scoop. When I was doing the McCall’s Design Star
contest back in 2010, the last project we had to do was to adapt our first
entry into a different quilt. I had used my Miss Hannah quilt as my first
entry.

And the quilt I made as an adaptation was Ambrosia:

Well, a few weeks ago I was getting nostalgic for a large
medallion quilt so I decided to see what I could do with Miss Kelly, the center
for My Tweets. Here’s what I’ve come up with so far.


Recently, I’ve wanted to do a quilt that combines both appliqué
and some embroidery. I am hoping for an exotic feel here as well. I think a lot
of my blog the next few months will document what I am learning by doing this
quilt.
So, I’m off to start my big girl job tomorrow. I am still
going to be blogging and rest assured, Mimi’s Bloomers will continue as well. I
don’t know how this whole thing is going to go but I am up for the adventure…hope
you are too.
