I find that I’m in that slump period before starting new
projects and determining the next direction on long-term ones. My hexagon quilt has reached the stage where
it could either be enlarged, or a border added and used as a very small throw. If
I do the borders now, should I add applique?
Still turning these thoughts over in my mind. Current dimensions are 47X60 inches.
Meanwhile, I’ve been doing some scrap management, cutting
down remnants, especially odd shaped ones, into 2 and 1 ½ inch squares. My containers are slowly filling up and I’m looking
at various options on what to do with them.
If I can at least determine a direction, I can start using them as
leader/enders.
In other news, a friend gave me the start of a Blue Mist
Flower plant last year. This year it has
really taken off and the butterflies love it.
She cautioned me to grow it in a pot because it can be invasive. It’s reached the point now, that I will need
to divide it before next spring. So far, all my efforts to grow Milk Weed have failed.

the grandchildren grow up so fast mine are almost 22 & 24 - crazy. As far as the tumblers go a border would look nice if you want to enlarge it and applique is always pretty and adds to it nicely
Love your Tumbler quilt, whatever you do, it will just be a stunner. That Blue Mist photo with the butterfly is so pretty! Oh man these grands grow up quickly. Our grandsons have quite a gap. The oldest is 24, and the youngest is 5!
