I always love when retreat time comes along. Uninterrupted time to sew and be with some of the best quilty friends around. This time it was great...except for the migraine that hit the first morning and continued on and off the rest of the time. I was so excited to work on Ricky Timms Convergence, bought just the right fabrics that were out of my comfort zone, pressed, starched, got the first cut down, and whammo IT hit. What came next was not pretty...my muddled brain skipped a step and I sliced the wrong thing. Ugh with a capital UGH. Well, that lemon will have to wait until I am ready to face it again. What did come out was this - on the second try (when the meds finally kicked in).
I did learn a few things though, never attempt a new technique with a migraine and a convergence will look much better with three different fabrics.
