The Quilt, Part 5

After massive amounts of swearing, kicking things and generally causing catastrophe among my very limited pool of fabric, I've finally completed the cutting. There were quite a number of design modifications that took place throughout the process, but I'm pretty happy with how it looks now. I had to make a couple decisions that were tough. My Riyadh square changed a bit tonight, and I opted for a light green on the top instead of the blue, mainly because it balanced the colors on the whole, even though I liked the way the square looked on its own before.

And because I just couldn't wait to get this thing pieced together, I got two seams sewed tonight. Two because, well, the sewing machine started acting up and it was late. So I took pictures and went to bed. But I did get a couple things put together, including this snazzy little section of quilt featuring a musician we all know and love (and by we, I pretty much mean me and Megan, and by love, I do mean idolize in an unhealthy way that will inevitably lead to a restraining order handed to us at one of his concerts.)

Speak of the devil, we'll be seeing the lad himself Wednesday night playing alongside Josh Ritter at the Zoo Tunes series at Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle.

A completely unrelated aside, if you haven't peeped out Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog you should. He has a PhD in horribleness.
