thanks!

thanks trashy, lucy and alice for playing in my 2ndYBSS!! a little something will be on your way soon!! :) i'm sorry for any passerby or any regular if you drop by today and saw i'd closed the specky-surprise so soon. but i think i can just manage to whip up something for 3 lucky persons this year.


i'd read a very aspiration word long time ago that if you've nothing to do (besides all your regular chores and nothing that fun, of course) but you really wanted to do something and you've time limitations, just quit! lol. a very wise saying from a quilter you can guess! :) well, why not?! i certainly fit into that description. and i had that specific mission put in my sidebar for SO long already! my mission-to-completion of a quit la-la!~~ lol. :) so, i've started on it and i've been hand piecing in every spare minute i got. i was initially dislike doing the piecing by hand. it took so long to see the end result compared by using the machine. but there were differences in the quality .. the stiffness .. the alignment between two method. and hand piecing yielded a better result. and i gradually like the time when i hand pieced every part.. the quietness and the patience of doing it was quite relaxing indeed! :)

so far i've finished 29 and i need 'around' 60! i have yet decide on the size of the quit.
