Like sets of waves so is life....

"Waves" Quilt Block
Size: 9"x9"
Constructed of Blue Hatch Style Security Envelopes and mounted on White Card stock



It's been almost a month since I posted another quilt block made of security envelopes in my Security Envelope Quilt Project. Like this example of the quilt block "Waves", my life has been rolling up and down.
Some days the swells are few and far between and other times the constant chop has me splashing around with a drowning feeling.

The blue color of the security represents not only water but the blues I have been feeling.

Tonight as I worked on my project, I had the 80's channel of Music Choice playing on the TV for distraction, inspiration, and background noise.
"I feel like I need to get away, runaway... take my tears and that is not livin'... Now I'm going to pack my things and go". Tainted Love by Soft Cell was playing on the 8O's channel just now and followed now by Manic Monday by The Bangles.... how ironic. But maybe they are the songs I need to hear to reflect, relax and feel secure.
