Getting the house in order

That's better.

I haven't blogged here for four years, or anywhere else for a year and a half. Blogger has evolved, monitors have gotten smaller, tastes have changed.

I still love me some purple, but that old layout with the deepdark color and links to extraneous things and a super-wide header image and everything was just not doing it for me, so I switched to a standard template and tweaked the colors just a tad. I don't know what those things on the edges are, but I'm okay with them if you are.

Procrastinating? Maybe a little. But I also wrote that whole long post this morning, and got out my materials and cleared a work space and put away the stuff that was in the way and isn't part of the process, and went on a non-quilt errand and came home and recovered from heat stroke. So sitting still for a while and playing with templates was totally justified.

I found the materials and Bob found the full-sized sketch. When I took the lid off the fabric bin and went outside to clean off the utility room grunge, Jamba stepped in to make sure nobody absconded with any bits of fabric.
