I was in desperate need of some stress management the other day, so I decided to load this disappearing nine-patch on the frame just so I could quilt a few rows. Before I knew it, two hours had passed and the quilting was done! I followed up with a bit of therapeutic hand stitching on the binding. In no time the quilt was finished and I was feeling MUCH better! There really isn't anything better for relieving stress than spending a little time with a needle and thread.

Oh...I SO agree!!! LOVE that quilt, too...such bright, pretty colors!!!
It's a cute, happy quilt and probably just what you needed!
There is nothing like a little quilting therapy. Looks great.
How true your words are. Great job and a very cheerful quilt.
I agreee!! What a terrific quilt.
It's so pretty! I love it! :0)
Quilting Therapy is the best - especially straight lines where the time just seems to pass by. It is the reason why I quilt.
And how could you be stressed working on such a bright cheerful quilt.
WOW that is a stress reliever for sure...love the colors, brings a smile just looking at it! I love doing bindings...especially when stress is bearing down on me! It is relaxing for me, just the slide of the needle thru the fabric does it for me! Have a great week, hopefully less stress!
love the colours in your quilt your a very talented lady indeed
love the quilt the colours are great nothing like quilt therapy to cheer you up
No argument from me--needle + thread + fabric = stress reduction.
Love those bright fabrics.

What vibrant colors. Great quilt.
fun quilt! I'm always amazed at how time flies when I'm quilting.
Oh...what a happy quilt! Love it in the bright colors.
Good for you ... like Mary Lou Weidman's quilt says "I feel like a witch when I don't get to stitch" ...
GREAT colors!
