I Like Thursday Week # 85 ~ Elevating



I am quilting.


Word For the Day: 

el·e·vate
/ˈeləˌvāt/
verb
  1. 1) raise or lift (something) up to a higher position.
  2.       2) raise to a more important or impressive level.




I am trying to elevate my quilting skills.

I do hand guided free motion without rulers or other aides,
guided only by my muse.

I do not aim for perfection, which I know is not achievable. 

I aim only to do what makes me happy.

I accept the bumps along the way as part of my quilting life.

I am happy.

Song For the Day
(one of all time favorites)



This is a good song to quilt by.

Your quilting is lovely! It's always an ongoing practice; just keeping at it. And I'd never heard this version of You Raise Me Up. I'v always loved the Josh Groban cover, and I really enjoyed hearing this one. It's such a wonderful song. Have a good week!

Your quilting looks great. I have a tendency to get lost while I am quilting and have to try to wiggle myself out of a dead end.

Love your word Pat, but your quilting sure looks wonderful as is to me. That is something I definitely need to elevate. Meanwhile, As always I enjoy so much seeing all your projects. Happy Stitching!

I love that you researched the machine, tried it out, and when it got home - you used it! You play with it, you experiment with it and you are growing with it.
