2013 lookback

 English paper piecing...
...and other stuff.

I think my 2013 was a mix bag kinda year.
Lots of interesting projects most of which are completed.
Plenty of gifts for friends,
(my favourite inspiration)
with many more on the horizon.

I love the start of a fresh new creative year.
I keep telling myself that 2014 is a year for painting
with less sewing
but somehow I think we all know how that will pan out!

I wonder what the next new year quilting trend will be?
Am I too late for a scrappy trip around the world?

ps.
Thank you for your everlasting friendship
I know with some of you we are like ships in the night
but it's nice to know we are still there for each other
even if it's a single word comment
just to say
hi

  18. Oh, my, look at that stocking! What wonderfully bold fabrics. Ok, I'm going to pretend you were talking directly to me about being "ships in the night". I think we literally comment on each other's blogs when the other is asleep. But it works! I've enjoyed getting to know you better this year =)
