The full moon this month
has been quite delicious.
It's believed that
It's believed that
June's full moon is called a strawberry moon
because it's the month when
berries begin ripening.
This month was a double treat
with the Summer Solstice and the
bella luna coinciding on the same day, June 20th.
Julie over at JulieKQuilts
has been encouraging anyone
interested in making a log cabin quilt
to join in with her and other Log Cabin Loonies
and share their progress during each full moon.
I'm not sure if you become a loonie
because you're starting a new project
or if the pull of the moon
affects your behavior changing you into a loonie
who then must start a new project.
Either way,
I have joined in.
I've been cutting 1 1/4" strips for years
and tossing them into a basket for
a someday log cabin quilt.
Julie's invitation was the exact motivation
I needed to dive in and get sewing.
I found as I was pulling out strips
that I was gravitating only
to brown and pink fabrics.
Could the strawberry moon be affecting me
with some subliminal message?
I haven't actually sewn much,
just sub-cut strips and made
one practice block.
Well, we'll see where this all leads.
You'll have to check back
during the thunder moon in July
and see how I've done.
Until Next Time-
Kyle
