QUILTED ORNAMENT WITH NO SEWING

I just ran across an awesome video on how to make a quilted ornament with "no sewing."  Now that's great quilting.

AN INEXPLICABLE AHA

Image via Wikipedia

Keeping your mind open and subjecting yourself to all types of mediums,opens the possibilities that we have, in the past, only seen in hindsight. Not to discount the value of hindsight, but foresight is really where we want to learn things. We want to be able to have already seen something happen so when we do experience it for the first time, it is as familiar as that raggedy old sweater you refuse to part with. You know, the one you decide you have worn to death and chose to throw away, but just don't have the heart to part with it. So many things are like that in our lives. Some things we really have to let go of...as hard as it may be, but moving forward offers so many new and rewarding possibilities that just the knowledge that for every one thing you let go of, so many, many more will appear, so much better than before,...should be enough to make that transaction take place. It is like bartering with our life. We trade something negative for 5 of something positive, and our life is improved, our goal is closer, we can see the light, we inexplicably must say...AHA.

I have begun to sew again, something I really never particularly liked. I don't know why, but I know that the fact that I am doing it and enjoying it, leads me to believe that it has purpose...and to tell you the truth, I hope it shows up soon, because I am not very good at sewing. I know I will improve with time, and especially with the new technology sewing machines have encountered. You can put a little card into your machine, set the material in front of you, and it will embroider a beautiful pattern while you are off doing something else. We have known for awhile that computers work that way, but isn't it just amazing that sewing machines can do that now? AAHHHAAA!
