A Loss of Memory

Mine & the Computer's....

I’ve been slow to start up again this season.  Much has to do with commitment to other activities, particularly blogs as we finalise sailing season details, including (his) technical minutiae.  Sadly, we’ve been lagging behind in adding information about maintenance and upgrades from previous years.  Sometime I should add costings as well, but that’s another story and I’m sure that anyone who is prepared to figure out how to cut, sew and generally re-arrange fabrics ad infinitum understands how important all these little things are.

I’ve also reached something of a crossroad in my memory bank as I know I made two pink and grey quilts about the same time but couldn’t seem to reconcile one with the other as my notes were slack, my memory shot and both quilts were passed on to better homes; one without a photo.  Gosh Darn!

Of course, I went back under the stairs to find my photo boxes – a shattering experience as I’m reminded about how much work I still have left as I catalogue my travel and quilting life.  I did find a few snaps of quilts I’d quite forgotten about and a photo or two of ones that I thought I hadn’t taken a photo of at all.  So all is not entirely lost!  Whilst on the subject of photos, one other incident is worth mentioning.  Somehow this year I lost (completely) a file of digital photos – our trip to London is now but a few photos pasted on a blog post.  That means 170 taken in London (again, gosh darn!) are forever lost to the world.  Yes, I did backup but too late it seems.  This now means that I will have to change HOW I backup…. 

Well, I think I’ve now sorted all my memories out now and am ready to get back on my hobby horse.

I'm now forever in love with blue tiles.
So much inspiration for a new quilt!
