Unfinished Conversations is Finished
Posted on November 29, 2017 by Beth Markel6 Comments
Hello all,
I apologize I haven’t posted for a couple of weeks, but it’s been a challenge to finish this very emotional piece. If you look back through previous posts, you can see where this just started off with some stray, orphan blocks, and where it is today. For me, this has been a wild roller-coaster of emotions, from missing my sister, to thinking about the mischief we got into, to laughing about small things and big things, and having babies only 4 months apart, and 2-yr olds at the same time, chasing after them, and so many things in-between.
So I’m going to take a deep breath, post a couple of the pics from along the way, and the final quilt. When I finished it, and pressed it, then put it up on the design wall, I burst into tears, and cried for about 24 hours, just as the loss seemed so fresh again. After 2 days of that, I feel like healing is coming.
OK, these just look like argyle socks…
Cluster of blocks on shades of purple – it’s OK, nothing special
Direction…

Done. My chest tightens up just working on this, but it’s also been amazingly therapeutic
Make every day count, and be kind to each other.
