Here it is

This is my Gamelan top. I still haven't trimmed it down -- I want to to look longer and thinner. I think I will finish the quilting first, then trim it down. That may give me a better idea how it will look in the end. I am planning to use some ugly backing fabric that I will never use in another quilt. Since it is a wallhanging, it won't show!

I have not

dropped of the face of the earth. I am still here, but I am a bit overwhelmed with various things going on, and the result is no quilting and no blogging. I am reading people's posts, but commenting seems a bit beyond me right now.

I did manage to finish my Gamelan top (wall hangings are so fast!), but I am going to change the proportions a bit to fit the space I will use it in. I hope to have pictures in the next several days, but in absence of those, I thought I would share this:

It gave me a laugh.
