got all the pieces of the "sandwich" put together and have started quilting the pillars of creation quilt. i also moved into a new studio space this week and it's more than double the size of my old one! even though it's still kind of a wreck in there, the quilting hoop was the first thing to go up, so i didn't have to wait to get started.

Last quarter

finally got the bottom right corner all stitched together.
