I didn't make very many because I tend not to keep them...
One that I did make was to make a charity quilt a month. I am using a pattern called "Streak of Sunshine" which I found at www.quiltville.com.
Yesterday, I returned to work and am trying to return to my routine of an hour in the studio before work and an hour after. In the morning, I got the eight strips joined and tubed. In the evening I got the tubed strips crosswise into strip and this morning, I got the new strips sewn into a square. Now I have to figure out what fabrics to use for borders without buying fabric. That's resolution #2-- fabric diet. I don't have serious stashes like some but I have enough to get me started. I have a lot of dark fabrics so I may need to purchase lights but only in 10" strips!! Or maybe I'll just swap with someone else.
I also have resolved to try to challenge myself by participating in challenges. There's currently one going called "Grounds for Change" with respect to coffee. I am starting to throw around ideas but I'm not sure where I'm going with it yet, or if I will participate in this one.
Anyways, I'm reading a really good book called "Love Walked In" and I want to finish it so I'll forgo any further posting for a bit.
