Happy 2019!!!

It's a new year...a time of new beginnings and thinking that anything is possible. With that thought in mind, let's go digging for those UFO, those projects that you have always wanted to do or just start a new quilt!! What are we waiting for? In the few short weeks of this new year, I have lost a cousin and two of my family's friends have lost family members...so there is no time to waste or put off for another day.

I was working on Bonnie Hunter's leader and ender project for this year and put the top together yesterday...now to find time to sandwich it and quilt it. I have also been working on  mini nine patches for a quilt we are doing as a bit of a mystery at guild. The ladies have seen the picture of the quilt but we will be giving them instructions bit by bit so they can finish the quilt by June.
I will be checking in with my friend Kathy to see what she is up to this year and her slow stitching Sundays! I don't have any hand stitching projects lined up as yet but I am sure they will come along as the year proceeds! Winter is usually good for one hand quilting project but with renovations ongoing in my house that might be a stretch,but it might also keep me out of DH's way!!

 It is my birthday today and at double nickels...or 55 years old, those socks just say it all !!! Here's to a day of sewing and hubby making supper!
Just a bit younger than 55 years

You just never know!

 The other day a friend texted me and asked if I recognized the photo she sent me. It was a photo of a quilt, one that I had made last year ...
