This is how my computer time is at the moment:
Waiting, waiting, waiting, is something happening? anything? waiting, waiting, waiting, yes, I see some movement, no I was mistaken, yes, the page is coming, so is Christmas, waiting, waiting, waiting, arrrrrraaaahhhaaarrrrraahhhhhharrrrrrraahhhhhhharrrrrrrraahhhhhhhharrrrhhhhhh!
I put that little bit of written noise to show how patient I am (not)! Acutally that was the exact noise I made at my hubbie for doing this to me. See, I said, how annoying that is?
Fell-in-love with this little find at oppe shoppe - a sheet and 2 cases! So sweet, and so much to work with.
I want to decorate/desecrate this little number - it is crying out for yo-yos? applique? ribbons?
Mum's Kaffe quilt in progress - I'm still nervous about it - are the colours gelling yet or will it take the final stitch to prove.
This is the backing fabric - I always like to get the backing with the top fabric - they must coordinate and this is usually easiest by buying from same range. (fuzzy pictures don't do justice)

What a fantastic quilt - I can't wait to see it finished (you know I like Kaffe Fassett too). And sympathies on the ssslllooowww computer - it is infuriating - we had it happen recently too.
arggh, my children have caused the sloow internet before but Now I am much stricter!!!! sheesh, i mean I have blogs to read.
Can I ask what you will do for the binding? The colours are incredible, can't wait to see it finished.
I have just completed a quilt top for my Mum as she turns 70 next week. I worked on nothing else for a couple of weeks and got it done in record time. About half way through I stopped and thought - oh my god this is just too over the top for mum. So I tweaked it slightly and am really happy with the outcome - still really colourful but more my mum if you know what I mean. I think though the Kaffe fabrics work in a different way to normal fabrics. They are designed to be over the top in a stunning way - keep going, I can't wait to see the finished quilt. That backing fabric is divine and I'd love to know what you're doing for the binding. I'm currently obsessed with stripes for binding and I reckon that kind of stripey fabric in the last pic could work well.
By the way, I will be working in Amitie as of Feb and hope you come in and visit me!
That white skirt needs some embroidery! Definitely!
PS. Love the name of your blog!
