so tired

[tielan]

Really need to get to bed before midnight. Even if I can't stop my body waking up at 5am, maybe I can persuade my brain not to get in on the act for a couple of hours until the alarm goes off?

Also: either really unfit or getting old. Body hurts after hockey. And this is me without any physical issues! I can't imagine being one of the women dealing with, oh, knees, and ankles, and feet and wrists and things that need binding week after week after week.

I do hope it's unfit. At least I can do something about unfit.

Have 45 minutes to midnight. The race is on...

Oh, and here, have some quilt that I made over the weekend:



That's the half-finished version, I'll post a pic of the full one up when I'm done, along with an explanation of the process. (Basically: I had an assigment for a quilt exchange, I forgot about it, and had to do a rush job over the weekend.)

Eeee, that quilt is fabulous! I love the little octopus in the middle and the stars out further.

Also, I hear you on the sore thing. Hope you feel better soon.

The octopus print is a hard-to-find fabric these days, from a collection called 'Salt Water' by a designer called Tula Pink. Her fabric designs are usually very detailed and a little creepy looking....

But yes, it's a cutie! :)

Tula Pink is fabulous! She talked to our guild last fall. I found her enchanting, even if I'm not a Modern quilter. Loved how she designs fabric, too. And you are totally right, her designs have a macabre element to them, which is sort of creepy charming.
