Quiltspiration: Flashback Friday

(Quick reminder: I’m giving away some fabric tonight! Leave a comment on this post, and check out the loot on Instagram.)

I get the question a lot. “How did you get into quilting?”

The thing is, I’ve always been into shapes and colors and quilts, but I didn’t actually learn to sew until two years ago. Quilting has always been inside me, but it took more than thirty years for it to come out.

Exhibit A: These photos are from a trip that my husband and I took to Spain in 2007.

I was thinking about shape and color and texture even then. I’m so glad I took another look at these photos– they’re going to inspire some future projects, I’m sure of that.

Have a great weekend! I’m hoping to get plenty of sewing done.
