Project

I seriously need to stop forgetting to post. I love blogging and I love writing, yet I cannot for the life of me remember to post. 

So, we made it through the first month of this deployment. Heck ya! The say the first month is the worst and the first three-four months are bad. So, I guess I only have three more months before it becomes normal. We hope right? 

So, I am completely jealous of people who own quilts. I want a quilt. I used to have one when I was little. My mom did my room in a log cabin theme. I had a old fashion quilts and bedspread. She had a huge bookshelf put in and on either side of that bookshelf, I had tea light lanterns hanging. We lived in a log house so that added to the affect. I love quilts and think they are beautiful. Yet, to get one my own, I cannot find one that I like. They are all too traditional and they do not fit the decor of our house. 

To solve the problem, I have decided to make my own. I have yet decided if I am going to hand-sew it or machine-sew it. It depends on what is better and what looks prettier. I've already decided that I want it black and white. Our house is black and white and red. Our living room has black, red and tan furniture, our guest room has a black, grey,white and red bedding and the master room has red, grey and white bedding. Our bathroom is even black, grey and white. We love those color combinations so I can't imagine have a blue, tan, red kind of quilt. I love black and white together and that's how I want the quilt. 

So, my cooking project has been on hold per my husband's request. He wants to wait after we pay off everything before I start investing into cooking. So, on top of my cooking adventure, I am going to be quilting. This deployment has given me my ups and downs. Each person deals with it differently, and I am making it. I am pretty much stuck at home all the time. So, with a huge cooking project and then a quilting project, I should be busy :). Anyways, I have a lot of research to do. I am hoping to have everything bought and ready by the beginning of March. 



Projects in the works:
