Simply quilts
When
you’re looking for a new creative challenge, the solution is,
quite simply, quilts. Choosing a new quilting project can enlighten
and invigorate your attitude about handiwork and life in general. Solving
the creative dilemmas in a new quilt is just the right thing to enliven
a quilter stuck in the doldrums of old ideas.
In order to find the right new project to suit you, consider the following:
• Consult websites and magazines that display finished quilts.
Look at these for inspiration.
• Get creative. Pull out your graph paper and design your own
quilt or quilt blocks.
• Try something new – take a class or learn a skill you
have always wanted to learn. If you have always wanted to learn paper
piecing, appliqué or machine quilting – take the plunge
and enroll in a class or enlist the services of a friend who has these
skills.
Choosing to simply quilt a new and different challenge will help you
to broaden your skill set, polish up your talents and give you the desire
to quilt again. Enjoy and relish your precious quilting time with a
class, a project or by learning something new about quilting.
