Welcome to you!

 Welcome to the new year coming, 

and Adieu to 2021!

A time to plan and start and finish!

Two flimsies are ready for the vault.


This pair will be quilted up 

and sent off to a couple once

their little one arrives in March.

Two more couples are expecting

in the new year so lots to plan and do. 

This color pearls wedding quilt, needs

a matching baby quilt for a little one

arriving in January.


As you can tell , I am trying to get 

a jump on my new year and plan out 

projects and some finishes.  I keep 

coming across "really good ideas" 

that just pull me in. 

Yesterday , I had a lovely sewing

session with the DIL and stitched 

up some flying geese using my box

of 2 1/2 inch half  squares.

I started out just randomly joining 

the pieces to make flying geese. 



The girls suggested I color family the 

geese and that really brightened things up. 



We had great conversations and lots of fun. 

This week has been marked by absolute

deep freeze temperatures . 


 It has been a great time to shelter and sew . Helping 

out with the GKs and traveling about 

town when it is this cold has been a 

real challenge but the whole community

seems to be focused on keeping 

everyone safe and warm. 

Organization is always soothing so I 

revamped my current projects binder 

and added a section for RS (Rainbow Scrap) challenges. 

Keeping all my instructions and progress reports

 (read scrawled notes on pieces made) 

in one place should help keep me moving forward!



I put in the binding calculator from 

Geeky Bobbins too!


Now to review my To Do list and 

get to stitching! I will leave 

you with an inspiration from 

my reconnected cousin. May it help

us find direction for the new year

if you need it , if not just find some

inspiration for continuing our 

growth thru this journey we call life!
