Getting Motivated

I heard a line from a TV show I watch at lunchtime (The Middle) and it's so true. Instead of saying, "Oh, I have to get up to go to work today, or, Oh, I have to do laundry today, etc."  Change the 'I have to' to 'I get to'.  Which I've immediately switched to doing. It does make a difference!

So, I get to work on two more beautiful quilt tops today. This one is on Bernie and has been [finally] started...

Getting a custom treatment
All I've really done is set in some piano keys in the border and long lines in the next set of borders. But after I get done working on the next top I'll get more into it.

Janices quilt received an all over paisley, so not much to show there. This morning I'll be working this one on DW as it is receiving an E2E with me driving...
This is a large top!
This may take the better part of today. 

Actually, the next three (these two and the next one on DW) are for the same customer who lives down in Ohio. I met her at the Shipshewana retreat and it's become a tradition that she makes tops throughout the year and I bring them home to quilt them in November. I'll mail (UPS actually) them back to her once they are finished this week. 

I did get a pass done on Foster last night until all of a sudden my heel started hurting. My body reminding me I'm the age that I am. 

It's very sunny out this morning and the snow is just so sparkly. But it is very cold too; five degrees right now. Wow, are my studio windows dirty.

Obligations
