With cautious optimism, I am joining the finishing fun with the 2015 Q1 Finish-Along hosted at On the Windy Side! Some items aren’t necessarily a huge time commitment (goals 1-12), but others (goal 13) will take a significant amount of time and thought. I am also hoping to dip my toes in the pattern writing waters in the next couple months, so I think I will be pretty busy!
Goals 1-12
In order to keep up with Mini Quilt Mania I am planning to make 12 more mini quilts for the first quarter of this year. Most are sketched, I have drafted patterns for others, selected some fabrics, and a couple are started.
Goal 13
I loved making Low Volume Fail, Pastel Win!, and I am planning a quilt based on similar ideas and techniques. I am currently sketching and selecting fabrics.
Goal 14
A Secret Project that is a generous twin sized quilt. It is currently quilted and ready for finishing.
Goal 15
A Secret Project that will be a lap sized quilt. The blocks are made and ready to be assembled, quilted, and bound.
Goal 16
I am thrilled with the results of Mini #1, and I want to make a lap or twin sized version of this pattern. I have scaled up the pattern and started pulling fabrics.
Goodness, I better get busy! I wish everyone the best of luck in the next few months, and I’m looking forward to seeing the exciting projects that are planned!
