The Other Most Productive Thing I Did This Summer

Here is the other quilt I made this summer, from a Civil War era pattern in "Vintage Quilts". I picked the fabrics out myself, and wished that I used more greens and cut back on the golds, but I think it turned out nicely.

The Most Productive Thing I Did All Summer

So, after failing the initial PFT at Quantico and flying back to Butte, I got the notion I should take up quilting. So, as my first project (I'd never done patchwork quilting before), I pick "Fiesta" from the Quilts Ole quilting shop in New Mexico, which was featured in this summer's Quilt Sampler magazine. What you see above is the most productive thing I accomplished this summer.

Which is so depressing to me. You'd think you could get more done in a summer than make a couple quilts, spend a few days in Quantico, go to Warped Tour and move to an apartment a little more than a mile away from your current one.
