I woke up this morning with Plan A - to finish it and post it before breakfast and then I wouldn't look like such a procrastinator, and I looked outside and saw free roaming animals - that were not supposed to be quite so free roaming... so off to Plan B - Chores first.
I got everything but 1 mare gathered, and went to get her and noticed that she looked a lot sick..., so now Plan C - ran to call the vet ( it can take them 45 minutes to get here - so I always err on the side of caution) And then I called my Horse Friend - who happened to be driving by - And bless his family's heart - they let him come help me... ( I OWE them big time)
He helped me get her up and walking, and we decided to keep the vet coming....
We worked on her all day - but apparently it wasn't to be, she is now in Heaven roping with Grandpa -I decided he must have needed a good mare ....and my quilt top is still sitting in the same place..... *sigh*
So I thought -after boring you with my oh poor me story - that a little more Quilty Inspiration might do us all some good.... at least it makes me happy ..
This quilt was made by Connie and Kathy in Longmont and Quilted By Liz Taylor Davis
I am going to be honest and tell you - I think... okay I know - I want this one - there is something about the contrast in this quilt that makes me go *ahhhh*
It was made bu Connie and Kathy and Quilted by Liz too.
This one was made by Connie and Kathy too - isn't it amazing?
Quilted by Liz Taylor Davis in CO
This one was made by Barb W in MN - This is probably her pattern - but you can find free similar ones
And it was quilted by Rita A in Colorado Springs CO
The last inspiration for today comes from Miracles , and was quilted by Karyn Furch in Colorado Springs CO
Thanks for reading all the way - hope you were inspired too - I love seeing the beautiful quilts - they make my heart happy.
