Trying New Things Thursday

So far this week, I’ve tried three new things.

025

The first is Robert Kaufman’s Quilter’s Linen (not real linen, just cotton look-alike).  I ordered several colors just to give them a try.

028

And then I started making some granny square blocks.  I actually have 12 done at this point.  I am aiming to make 20 for a small quilt and Bea has already claimed this one.

I also bought some Presencia hand quilting thread that was shipped today.  I might either try using the size I bought in my machine as the top thread (not in the bobbin) or possibly doing some hand quilting which I have never tried for outline quilting in this granny square quilt.

I have another new non-quilty thing I tried this week…I got my super-long hair cut.  I donated a 12-inch braid to Locks of Love.   This new haircut feels light, breezy, and very liberating.  I love it!
