One of my New Years resolutions was to blog more often this year. I finished my blogging on the
http://sewsisters.blogspot.ca/ at the end of December. I was doing a weekly tutorial for the Fundamentals block of the week program. We did 52 blocks (50 were used in the quilt) and another 50 secondary blocks. This is the finished product. I forget the finished size, but I had to hang it sideways on the design wall so it wouldn't drag on the floor. I am really pleased with the outcome. It was created using the Stonehenge line of fabrics by

It really got my feet wet blogging every week. Now that that is over I plan on putting a little more time into my personal blog.
Wellll, what can I tell you. I thought I would start off the new year by trying to purge my studio. It was starting to resemble a hoarding episode which really hinders any kind of enthusiasm to create. First to go, MAGAZINES...
I have a rule. I must like 3 things in the magazine before I can justify buying it. Clearly I am very enthusiastic because I went through 4 bins like this ripping out ideas and inspiration. I hope our garbage man has a good breakfast this week because our recycling bin is really HEAVY!!! I still have a lot of clutter to organize but I am getting there. I am also working on my UFO Challenge for my guild
http://www.yhqg.org/. It is an English Paper Piecing project using reproduction 30's fabrics which I will machine quilt in order to meet the May deadline.
Thanks for stopping by....
