Sew Sunshine

Here it is Friday and the end of the month. I am sad it is going so fast but I think I have some pretty good momentum going and I "hope" that takes me into Feb.  My January Finish for A Lovely Year of Finishes over at Bittersweet Designs and Fiber of all sorts  HERE is my Giant Starburst from the QAL over at  Canoe Ridge Creations . Original post about finish goal  HERE    It has been really windy so I have had to have my husband help but it is late in the day when he gets home so some of the pics are in the shadows. I really need to work on photography.   Yep, jumped on the IKEA fabric for this back. I love it with this. One of my favorite quilt making experiences ever! Measures 60x06 straight line quilting with Aurifil pieced binding Love the way the colors came together too! I might be using this in an upcoming contest but will have to wait and see.  Other than that I dabbled in some other crafty things. ...

2013 for me, was a year of learning and experimenting. Trying, failing, succeeding and striving to do better.  Some days joyous, other days frustrating. For me it was just in the doing something creative that kept me going. I am thankful for it all.  Here are a few of my creative adventures:   I am excited to get started on a few challenges, QALs and working on my stash.  Here is a WIP that I would like to finish this month. Linking up with January A lovely year of finishes   "Giant Starburst" QAL with Megan over @  Canoe Ridge Creations Also linking up with Sarah for a Year in Review @  Sarah Quilts
