New Year. New Crafts.
Happy New Year! Been busy with work, knitting, organizing the house. I bought some fat quarters at City Quilter when I was up to NYC in October. Finally found the right project that used up 8 out of 9 I purchased. It's a pair of pillow shams in King Solomon's Temple pattern. This is a top in progress as of this afternoon...another shot, as well as one of my match points. I spent two hours yesterday arranging and rearranging the squares, second guessing myself all the way. Like it much better after a good sleep and sewing up. Waiting on my order of white fabric for my half triangle border. Will post as I progress. This will be my third ever small quilting project. Hope to venture up to a full sized bed quilt in the near future. This is two afternoon's worth of work so far, from prepping to sewing.

All those fabrics are so fun, they will be very cheery pillows. Happy New Year MB! May the new year bring you a full sized quilt.
I took a peek and love what you got going on with your City Quilter fabrics. I forgot how cute they were. Can't wait to see them all finished. Keep it going sis!
