Last week I put in an order for some wood to start a new scroll saw project, but due to the major snow storm we had last weekend, the delivery of that has been delayed until tomorrow so I decided to press ahead with a quilt I started last year:

Heather and I took a class to make this one. It’s called, “labyrinth Walk”. Heather finished hers and I’ve been avoiding mine. It’s a bit complicated, but I’m just over half way done and hope to finish it in a few days. I’m not going to quilt this one myself, instead I’m going to send it out to a long arm quilter. This thing is 84×84 inches and too big for my current sewing machines. It will look great when it’s done, but it is more complicated than I thought it would be.
I’m hoping to send this one out about the same time my walnut wood arrives for a scroll saw box I want to start working on. I do have one other project on the scroll saw right now, but it’s still a bit too cold to work out there or even to walk through the snow to get a picture.
That’s about it for this week – if you need me, I’ll be out looking for the UPS truck.
Gosh, that’ll do your head in!

“The Guilty Quilter”, ha. The labyrinth pattern qualifies as advanced quilting, so good on you for giving it a try. It’ll look great when it’s done. As for your delivery delay, I’m assuming you were on the outskirts (or maybe in-skirts?) of that recent storm in the Sierra Nevadas. Even in our many years heading up to Tahoe City I don’t remember snow totals like that. Nice to know the lake and the Truckee should be filled to their brim/banks as a result.

This storm dumped nearly half a normal year’s worth of snow up there. I live on the east side of the Reno basin, which is the drier side of town so we only got a foot of snow, but since they don’t plow our roads on this side, it was a couple of days before we went anywhere. So far it looks like a good water year for us.

Wow, what a cool pattern! I can only imagine how painstakingly it has to be assembled. Looking forward to seeing the final result! :-)

It is. Can’t tell you how many times I’ve had to redo something.

Pun intended to “press” ahead with the quilt?! Made me smile.
