The Sirens' Song





Still working on that giant beast.

And new temptations are doing just that, tempting me. They sit on my cutting table, like Sirens singing their song. "cut me... sew me... tralalala..." Like Odysseus I am chained, only to the sewing machine instead of a boat, so that I can hear their song but not be lulled to the dangers near the shore.

I believe these two lines will both play well together and I have a concept in mind. Alas, it must wait. I must not break free of my chains. Soon, soon...

Ok, you've inspired me to go work on my not-so-crazy-about-daughter-selected-fabrics WIP, even though I've got piles of prettier fabrics calling out to me. Misery loves company:) Good luck!

Gorgeous temptations. Be strong and quilt on.

You've got this. The beast is almost done. Just put them on your cutting board while you're making a salad and cut them up at the same time. You are a multi tasker always.
