Fabric Doors

I love taking art quilt classes. In my latest class, Fabulous Facades by Gloria Loughman, we started out with the same pattern to learn her appliqué technique. We pinned our doors on the design wall. I like them all.

Later we used her technique to work on our own photos/patterns. I am using a photo/pattern of a fishing cabin. It should be finished about this time next year, but don’t hold your breath. Once I get home from class, I get into my routines and ruts and unfinished projects tend to disappear into the landscape of my sewing room.

This fabric door is mine. It’s approximately 12 x 16 inches.

You Never Listen to Me

While Angie transferred clothes from the washer to the dryer, Charlie was in the other room saying something. She asked him to repeat himself. He got offended.

When Angie vacuumed or fed papers through the shredder, she could hear Charlie’s voice but couldn’t understand him. He pouted when she explained she couldn’t hear him over the machines.

“You never listen to me,” Charlie complained.

He expected her to hover within conversation range while he showered. Saturday night, the sounds of the shower water and his own voice prevented Charlie from hearing the front door close and Angie driving away.
