Valentine's Day Lovelies
I'm on a roll with getting things finished this week! I can't cross anything off my WIP list, but I'm very happy with my results.
Patchwork Heart:
The backing is something I'm been saving for a while...it was hard to use it, but I love the results and the contrast it provided.
Little Ostrich:
This is for my Little Ostrich and I can't wait to get a picture of her in it. We are going to look for a matching top and tights. I used Anna Maria Horner's All Set pattern and will make it again. It is fully lined in light gray.
Now I'm hoping to finish a few more Scrappy Trip Along blocks.

Patchwork Heart:
I made it from 2 1/2 inch squares and used all scraps for the front. I'm very happy with the results. I was inspired by Blue Elephant Stitches and s.o.t.a.k. homemade.

New Year, New Blogger and New Blog
Hello Blog World,
After observing from my ipad in 2012, I have decided to post. I'm really not sure what my goals for this space are and look forward to developing them over the next year. Mostly, I need a space to keep myself in check...to many projects, to much fabric, and to much inspiration has overwhelmed my sewing space. The first thing you should know about me is that I love a good list, so that is when I will start:
2013 Goals:
1. Finish at least 1/2 of my 72 WIP.
2. Take pictures of my finished projects and post them at least 3 times a month!
3. Stop buying so much fabric! And use up the fabric I have collected in the last 2 years--I'm not use if fabric ages like wine, but if it does my collection is getting better by the day!
I started 2013 by doing a little bit better on goal 2 and 3 with my Scrappy Trip Along. I cut into 66 fat quarters. Most of them Anna Maria Horner. I think it is going to be lovely. My goal is 64 blocks before Quilt Con....we will see.
Goal 1 is going to be an uphill battle for me. I started several new projects this week, but I did manage to make some headway on a couple older ones. More on that to come.
