January is a time for planning and a time of reflection. Today I am not going to reflect, but instead, plan quilt projects that I will complete in 2014. Please note that I used the word "will" instead of "hope to."
10 projects for the new year. The nice thing is, I already have the material or kit for most of these projects. So here they are in no particular order, but I do have a deadline for the wedding quilt so it is #1..
1. Wedding Quilt – Log Cabin Maple Leaf Quilt Kit - "Fall Foliage" - This is for my nephew who is getting married at the end of the summer. He and his future wife both love the outdoors.
Had to buy this book for the pattern. Kit was purchased a Gramma Fannies. |
The Cow Jumped Over the Moon |
Pinwheels and Half Square Triangles |
4. Pokey Little Puppy Quilt - I found this in a magazine and bought the material at Fabric Shack last summer. It's about time to get started with this cute quilt!
Dec. 2009 Quilter's World has Pokey Puppy quilt pattern |
Can't wait to get started on this quilt! |
Black and White Material |
8. Scrappy Rail Fence. I have always wanted to make a Rail Fence Quilt - No picture and don't know the colors yet.
9. Irish Chain. I fell in love with this quilt and plan to make it this year:
Irish Chain Pattern, "Mountain Paths" can be found in Quiltmaker, Summer 2013 |
I hope this helps you to think about your future quilting goals or any other goals you may have for the new year. Have fun making a list and be sure to write it down!

You inspire me … thank you.
ReplyDeleteWow Gladys, you sure have been busy thinking. I have been making 4 patch blocks. The first block of the Celtic Solstice is done. Now onto making chevrons and pinwheels. I will try to keep you on track to get your To Do list done.
ReplyDeleteMaybe I should make one too!
It was great talking with you yesterday :)
I have been working on clue 1, and it's very close to completion. Lots of cold days ahead to quilt! I enjoyed our conversation too. I miss everyone!
