Although I can't really complain. When I was living up north on Big Manistique Lake instead of a few inches of snow we would get a few feet of snow...lol As much as I miss living up there I will happily settle for less snow.
I was checking my January "To Do List" and found I am not doing to bad.
I wanted to make 4 more blocks for Ashley's quilt and so far I have made 3. One more and I can add the border and get it ready to quilt.
I finished my Hip Chick 2013 BOM quilt top.
And I have all the blocks made for my Country Threads 2013 BOM quilt.
Don't look too close....mine isn't exactly as they planned. I added a couple of 12" blocks I had from other projects and I didn't want to add as many HST blocks so I substituted some 6" blocks I had from other projects. I really like how this is turning out. I have the first row of blocks sewn together and today's plan is sewing the rest of the blocks together. After that I need to add a border of 2 1/2" black and white squares.
Now for my 2014 BOM's
I made my block for Pat Sloan's Globetrotting BOM.
Yesterday I made the first block for Sugar Shack BOM.
For this BOM I am using fabric I have been collecting designed by Renee Nanneman of Need'l Love. They are so soft and romantic. I love the bumble bee fabric I used in the center of the block.
I still have 3 more BOM's I want to work on. But no pressure here. If I don't get a chance to work on them it's okay as long as I remember to print up the directions.
My new philosophy is "No Stress". Life should be fun and so should quilting.
So now I think I will get some sewing done. Stay safe, keep warm and enjoy!
Hugs, Cathy
