Optimisms, sought and noted

Today I have been sewing new blocks for my Positivities quilt. Club members just received the second pattern booklet earlier this week, so it is early days yet in our 12-month club. But naturally, I am working ahead. Would you like to see?


I am sewing good ol’ fashioned plus blocks. These never do get old! They’re super scrap-friendly and super straightforward so you can sew them on a lazy day and everything comes out swell. And today is certainly a lazy day, haha! I am giving myself permission to be distracted from my work and even went on a walk in the middle of the day. It was refreshing.

Now I have a batch of plus blocks ready to be sprinkled throughout my Positivities quilt-in-progress. In fact, I think it is high time that I layout the quilt blocks that I have sewn so far and see how this is looking. Don’t you agree?

Okay, so there are still some giant holes and the lighting on my design wall isn’t ideal today, but you get the idea. I like the energy! Now I am feeling inspired to start assembling things and fill in the negative space properly with the Tilda Peacock blue so that I can really see how it’s going to look. Exciting!

It is not too late to join us! If you join the club now, you’ll receive the January and February editions right away and then the March edition when it is published early next month. You can still choose to pay in one lump sum (and save!) or opt for the monthly subscription model. Come join the fun!

xoxo,

Rachel
