Enjoying the Quiet After Christmas

You’ll have to excuse me if I’m a bit quiet this week. This is my favorite time of the year – the magical week between Christmas and New Years that just feels like an extra bonus before the new year begins on January 1st.

I usually dive in deep on a quilting project during this week and quilt like a mad woman on only the things I want to work on.

This year, I’m feeling pulled towards the Dream Goddess quilt as well as a big push to finish my year long scrapbook which sort of stalled out around the summer. I’m at that tricky stage of having done so much I can’t drop it, but jeez – SCRAPBOOKING? What the heck was I thinking?

I’m also taking this week to get all my final ducks in a row with our new quilt along. We have a wonderful Machine Quilting Block Party planned for you this year and it’s going to be so much fun to teach a block-by-block, month-by-month quilt along again. 

It’s definitely a lot of fun, but it’s also a lot of work! I’m going to take the next few days to be off the computer so that I’ll fully energized and ready to roll with the new block party on January 1st.

I hope you’re planning to join us for this fun new monthly project in 2016!

Let’s go quilt,
