a little me time

Some folks like
massages & facials & manicures
for their ME time...

Not I!

And, not that I'm just being contrary...

I do like massages, facials and manicures.
(And, I wouldn't turn down any of those if my family members are reading this right now!)

But, if I have the choice between those and quilting
for ME time?

Quilting and stitching almost always wins,

hands needle down!

So, here's a pic of some of my recent ME time:

Only the last/bottom row left to quilt!
Anytime I have a little block of time - fifteen to twenty minutes or so,
I'm turning on Big DD and meandering away-
ME time!

(as an aside on this quilt -
I hand-embroidered and pieced this quilt almost three years ago...
I made the back and the binding.
I had in my mind that I would layer it
and hand quilt it during the year,
to put it out that winter -
THREE years ago. 
Then the same idea the second year. 
Then the third.
I have quilted TWO of these quilts for other folks,
but mine was still sitting, awaiting hand-quilting.
This year, I decided, that was ridiculously silly,
so I FINALLY put it on the machine!)

So, here's to ME time.
Happy self-indulgence time to you also,
whatever that may be!
