Marbles

I've done some more thinking about what the quilt will look like. I am going to work on making marbles (don't know how yet) and then words related to marbles. Since my brother collects them, I'll put then all into a wall hanging. I have collected pictures and then words--shooter, pee-wee, catseye, aggie, steely. I'm going to try to make the words curved--like the marbles. Don't know how, but I'll give it a shot.

I'm at a conference this week--so won't be able to get started until next week. It's good to see all the other ideas so far.

Tonya--thanks for the invitation. I've been reading your blog for a couple of months and love your choice of color. I know from experience that your "lazy" way of quilting is for me actually more work--but I want to try it anyway. I have an older brother who collects marbles, and I thought to make him a marble quilt (you know the little round things you play with, not statues and floors).

I don't know how I'll do it, but I've already started to collect pictures of marbles so I'll have inspiration; should be an interesting summer adventure.
