Wild Goose Chase Medallion Centre

While we were staying at the beach last week, my machine went in for a (much needed) service. My Bernina has an indicator on the computer screen that turns on every 2 million stitches - which is roughly how many stitches I did in the twelve months leading up to the service. Do you think that means I sew too much? ;o) 

I picked her up yesterday, and it was so nice to sit down last night and sew (especially since she is running so smoothly post-service). I decided to ignore my priorities and keep sewing the centre of the medallion I showed you a few weeks ago. It even has a name already - Wild Goose Chase, and I'm bustingly excited to keep working on it once I've knocked over the other couple of things I need to get done this month. 

 

It's funny, but the Koi fabric (by Rashida Coleman-Hale for Cloud 9) I used for the outer triangles wasn't actually intended to be part of this quilt. I love how it works with the rest of the centre block though - I'm calling it a happy accident :o)

Thanks so much for your lovely words on my post last week - you've convinced me to just keep doing what I do (as lots of you said, it's MY blog. Thanks for keeping it real!). The quilt math series will definitely be happening too - stay tuned for more info on that next week! I'm uber excited about it, and I'll be teaming up with a bloggy friend for the series :o)

Last day of school holidays today, looking forward to 'normal' life resuming tomorrow!
