From the look of this, your brain injury is packing up and Moovin' On Out! Isn't it wonderful what quilting can become for each of us? Seems as though it's become a wonderful tool for your recovery!

Your fabric choices are lovely, and if you will just take your time, you will do fine. If you don't have a "Buddy" nearby to help you, ask any questions you need to here for clarification. Any and all of us will be glad to give you a hand. Good luck with this lovely quilt, and be sure to post pics as you go along.

Your fabrics are gorgeous! I think any project you choose to do with them will be stunning.

Hi. I have a brain injury as well. This past year I started by taking some interest courses on quilting. I started some lap quilts but didn't finish during the course time. I then joined a Quilt Guild and some members are going to help me through some of the parts I don't understand. Good luck with your quilt.

You did a great job on choosing fabrics (I always find this to be the hardest part) so I think you will do well with the cutting and sewing too. Have fun.

Thank you everyone...
Hugs to you all... Encouragement means the world to people with brain injuries as we have a real bad habit of beating ourselves up. |
Dreamer, I am sure you will make an awesome quilt! It is wonderful that you are continuing to challenge yourself after a severe injury. God Bless you and may you continue to heal.
|
Good luck and god bless.
|
Love the fabric!

Where in Canada were you born? I'm originally from Ontario but my husband teaches at Mt Allison University here in New Brunswick. We will be retiring back to Ontario in a few years.
I know exactly how you felt choosing the fabrics. I go with what I see on a pattern or by colours in a family eg the Moda fabric lines. I have to do things a few times to learn them. Even then the next time I go to do it I may forget again. |
Your colors are lovely, wish I could pick them out like that.
|
I love your color choices
|
Your fabrics are beautiful! Good luck with your quilt. I am looking forward to seeing pictures when you finish.
