I made two resolutions for 2015,
this is the first one . . .
And I intend to remind myself to do just that.
The second resolution is to unsubscribe to one email solicitor every day. I go to bed thinking I'm caught up on reading email and then wake up to over 30 new emails the next morning. I hear from some businesses every day, and I've had enough. There are so many it's overwhelming. That's why I've decided to unsubscribe to one a day, instead of spending an hour or two trying to get rid of all of them all at once. So far it's been painless.
On a quilting front, I don't have resolutions per se, but I do have a few projects that I think would make me happy to work on.
I am participating in the FQS Snapshots Quilt Along. It's a fund raiser for St Judes, uses adorable fabric, and has the cutest blocks I've ever seen. It's a win, win, win. I hope you'll join the fun.
I have a new space between the kitchen and living room where I'm now hanging quilts. I could use some quilts for that space, something around a 52" x 52" size.
This quilt by Cindy Lammon finishes at 42" x 42" and is high on my list of projects to finish this year. The pattern is in the November/December 2014 McCall's Quilting magazine. The majority of the fabric in my stash is fat quarters and this pattern needs some yardage, I'll need to do some shopping before I can start this one.
This year I'm going to piece a pattern designed by Edyta Sitar of Laundry Basket Quilts.
I follow Edyta on Instagram, every day she posts a picture of one of her quilts, I love them all and am hoping this is the year I make one.
I think Brigitte Heitland's Zen Chic patterns X's and O's and Write on White are amazing.
I think Write on White would work with any style and color of fabric, X's and O's is made using Reel Time by Zen Chic for Moda and should be available in April, I'm not sure I can wait that long, I may go with something else.
There are several patterns in this book by Amber Johnson that I like.
And I saw this quilt hanging in a shop, no Y seams are used to piece these large wedge blocks.
The Flying Falcons quilt is by Violet Craft. I have no idea what fabric I would use, something to think about for sure.
And I've fallen behind on my Thimble blossoms patterns. I hope I get a few of these done before Camille cranks out a dozen more.
So that's whats floating around in my head for projects, but I'm very flexible and always open for a sew along or something new and different.
What are your plans for 2015, maybe I'll join you?
