Let the New Year's Eve sewing begin! You won't see this finish until October but by then, I trust we'll be well past at least some of the challenges of this year. Auld Lang Syne, 2020 - we're moving on to brighter days! Everybody say YES!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Stay home. Stay safe.

This week I've been squeezing a personal project in between other obligations. This #brimfieldblock was the @houstonmqg "slow stitch" challenge in 2019. I followed the "slow" directive perfectly, barely eeking out 6 blocks for our January meeting before letting the project sit idle while 2020 happened. It was my first EPP and I learned a lot..like despite that I love the results, pulling out the glue basted papers was completely ugh! I briefly considered stitch basting but was pretty sure I wouldn't even consider doing another EPP until @lovepatchonline turned me on to #hexiforms from @brimfieldawakening! Game changer! I will save this project from the UFO forever bin and now I think there is another EPP in my future! I might even (gasp) fussy cut!⁣

Some quilts are all about the actual quilting and my "Dashing Through the Snow" quilt is a great example. Lana from @itseamstobesew really made this design special with her mad longarm skills! You can find this pattern in the January 2021 edition of #AmericanQuilterMagazine from @aqsonline - it's available now.

I've done a lot of secret sewing in 2020, but there's no prohibition against showing quilt backings. That's where some of my best (and thriftiest) improv happens! This "use it all up" fabric was generously provided by @hoffmanfabrics and is absolutely gorgeous! I can't wait to share the beautiful quilt, along with other big reveals, with you in 2021!

I've donated a set of 2 holiday quilts to the @misterdomesticfundraiser in support of the work of @fairfightaction and @georgia_naacp in the Georgia Senate runoff elections. There are a lot of great items being claimed silent auction style with the purpose of making sure all voices be heard (so head on over to check out the goodies!). Whatever your political beliefs, making sure every registered voter gets to the polls is in the interest of preserving democratic and fair, free elections.

I have to say I was a little surprised by the pallette of colors I used most in 2020, but isn't it pretty?
