I loved the rain too. I don’t like it at my house anymore bc it floods but I love hearing it! Also the perfection thing..reminds me how i started to do little quilts. I’m not a rule follower and get bored by precise instructions so about 30 years ago when I didn’t have a machine I found an article about “how not to make a prize winning quilt” bc I thought also our grandmas didn’t have access to all this precise machinery and templates and all. Anyhoo. So I just did my best and made a template square from a cereal box and made a quilt. 😂. So that’s kinda my technique to this day with a few added things. Did finally break down and buy a nice 5” square template but that’s about it.

Oh Momma! I found a big box of cloth scraps, cut into shapes, with a piece of cardboard, at a flea market YEARS ago. It was old old cloth and it made my heart sing. There were some blocks that the maker made too. Precious. I still have them. 💜💜💜

Hello KZfaq friend Jeri - there are no boring dots lol! Yes, perfectionism drives me nuts as an aging person. It has been a thorn in my side since forever. P.S. the rain sounds lovely - just Mother Nature doing her thing. Fantastic job on your book. I am grateful for you, my creativity instilled in me at a very young age and ability to embrace Joy no matter the circumstances. x's lj

I love the rain too. It didn’t bother me. I had a lacing book as a child too. They would come with different color what looked like shoe laces and you would weave them into the holes.

Oh, my gosh! I am in love with this little concertina book 💜! Can't wait to make one. I am a member of the Aging Creatively and Gratefully group & am enjoying it so very much. I posted my dot collection recently (40 of them in neutral colors), so I certainly have plenty to make several little projects. You are such an inspiration - thank you so much for sharing your creative talents with us. By the way, I did have one of those lacing books as a child! Oh, and the rain was a wonderful addition - I have a "sound machine" that has rain as one of the tracks; very soothing.
