5/28/06--Readin

I'm currently reading The Mists of Avalon by Marion Zimmer Bradley. This is a feminist take on the tale of Camelot told from the point of view Morgaine and Geneviere. I'm reading this for my Historical Favorites Bookclub. We are each reading a King Arthur book. The Mists of Avalon has been on on TBR pile for a long time, and I'm finally getting to it! I've never read anything about King Arthur before. Reading this qualifies for my challenge to read "One Doorstopper Per Month in 2006". I'm about 200 pages in on this 800+ page book. More thoughts on this book to come...

5/28/06--Quiltin

I'm working on a Shaded Trail quilt. The colors are purple, red, and orange. It is going to be a bright quilt. I haven't decided what size I'm going to make it yet. I'd love for it to fit the full size bed in the spare bedroom. I'm going to have to see if Joann's has more of this fabric first. I've completed the first 10 blocks, and I'm in the middle of the second set of 10 blocks. I'm paperpiecing this quilt. Lots of work but very fun.
