2015

Happy New Year everyone!  Here is my final ALOYF posting.  This past year was productive for me.

ALOYF--December Finish

I have been so grateful to Melissa and Shanna for hosting ALOYF these past couple years.  I've pushed to get things done thanks to the motivation of posting and sharing.  I will miss the link-ups and monthly goal setting with them.

Christmas Ornament Exchange

This year I participated in an ornament exhcange sponsored by Madam Samm.  I was watching for the post to link up, but apparently I missed that.  So, sorry I'm late ...

Merry Christmas!

This holiday season has been so busy, but I wanted to stop in and wish everyone a very merry Christmas!  I made a couple of these darling ornaments (tutorial from Diary of a Quilter) to give away as gifts.  I think they're darling =)

ALOYF--Back in the Saddle

I've been quite a bit absent the last couple of months.  Mostly because I started a new job and now work 40+ hours each week.  Quite a change from subbing =)

ALOYF October Goal

Last month I started Faithful, the project in the 2nd Frivols bin.  I thought it would be a quick project in between other larger projects ...it has been sitting here this way for about 2 weeks now.

September ALOYF Finish

Well, I've held onto this right down to the wire, but here it is ...  I really like this finish!

Welcome!

"Hello Handsome" quilting progress

Welcome!  To those of you who are new, thanks so much for stopping by.  A big thank-you to Amy over at Amy's Creative Side for featuring me today.  Truth be told, I was a bit star-struck when she contacted me =)  I religiously follow her Bloggers Quilt Festival in May and October.  I have a quilt kit awaiting attention that she designed both the quilt and fabric for. And I love her new fabric line that just showed up at my LQS, Chic Neutrals.

September Stash Bee

I got right on these blocks this month because I want to focus on quilting my Handsome quilt for Rhett.  I'm kind of glad that I did, because I had nothing but trouble with the sizing on my first attempt.

September ALOYF Goal

This month, I'm hoping to finish quilting my Hello Handsome quilt.  I started it back in March 2014 as one of my ALOYF goals, and I've been making progress in fits and starts.
