helping

I get lots of help when I finish a project. Tsia knows that once it's done we need to take a photo or two. Sometimes she doesn't even wait for me but takes things into her own hands. For example, this photo that she took on Saturday while I was otherwise occupied. I'm just wondering how she learned to operate the flash by herself?


So I've learned that I need to wait until she's at school or with Todd before I start setting up.


Today I was all excited because I happened to be at home and the afternoon sun was creating a nice light.


I even had enough time to try two different set-ups for my photo fix.


But I hadn't counted on my other helper. The one who doesn't care to be behind the camera; just in the middle of the subject matter.


I'm not sure which helper is really more helpful.

postscript: Oh, the quilt! Sometimes I get so carried away with the stream of consciousness, I forget what I was writing about. I wanted to use my scraps of Liberty lawn and started this doll quilt just before Quilt Market...last May. Yes indeedy, even the little projects take a long time these days. But to be fair (to whom? me or the quilt?), that's mostly because it sat around waiting for hand quilting. And then when more hand quilting wasn't forthcoming, it sat around waiting for me to do laundry. Those bed-sizes quilts I want to make? Not happening for a loooong time, I'm afraid.
