SKY

My friend gave me a pendulum last night. I had been curious about these in the store but had a lot of fear associated around them. I have enjoyed playing around with her. I named her SKY. I like to name things when I find that the name that was given does not suit me. I got the idea from Anne of Green Gables who would rename things in her environment. To me she knew how to live very romantically.
I am still working hard on my hexagon quilt. I am hoping to have it quilted by New Years day and then begin working on the edge. It is fun to see all the different colors and images that are hidden in the quilt. One hexagon has a Japanese character on it. It reminds me of Catherine's love for all things Japanese.


Here is a video of how they picked Megan Follows as Anne of Green Gables. I love hearing about her own transformation from a 17 year old to a 12 year old. How much she wanted the part and how she applied little post its all over the house with her intention.

I am going to take the challenge of blogging every day till the first of the year.

  2. Sky - such an appropriate name for your pendulum, now named she is truly yours.
    The quilt is looking wonderful - all that stitching - time spent in beautiful contemplation.
