Getting back to quilting

I have been quilting all along but recently have had some life changes and am looking forward to getting back to doing some creative things. Right now I am making a quilt for my granddaughter in her favorite colors, red, sky blue and violet. This has been quite a challenge since the blue and violet blend in to each other. Well, I found a novelty print in my stash that has a pink background and ALL her colors. I convinced her that we needed to use some darker values in the blue and violets. It will be square in a square, using various sized squares. It is good to get back to quilting. I recently moved and my sewing space is much smaller. I was overwhelmed with the boxes but yesterday I made myself some room, decided that I could ignore some unpacked boxes and work on them a few at a time and started Laila's quilt. I feel so much better now. Woo Hoo
*they are all just sewing room boxes any way.
