There were a handful of finishes - well every one has to be a favourite doesn't it? My mum's quilt (which she loves by the way - I got in to trouble for not mentioning that in yesterday's post), an orange and pink quilt for Siblings Together, Baby George's Peeps Plus quilt and a quilt for me - my Lark quilt.
A couple of blue unfinished quilts for my Godson and my husband.
I discovered EPP (English Paper Piecing), loved it and even joined an EPP bee. I started my quilting journey with hand sewing and have loved returning to it.
It was huge fun joining in with Mouthy Stitches 1 and 2 and the For the Love of Solids swaps.
I also made my first zippered pouches and totes.
All in all, not a bad effort. I shall keep my resolutions for the beginning of the new year. It just leaves me to thank all my followers for dropping in and reading during this year - your comments make my day, inspire me and keep me motivated. Thank you.
Happy New Year!
For someone who has to contend with ridiculous heat half the year I think the amount you made is fantastic. And incredibly beautiful too!
ReplyDeletewow.....better up my game for next year.....wonderful stuff
ReplyDeleteIt is so nice to see all those lovely makes together like that. You have, in fact, had a wonderfully productive year and have also lived in a hot and exotic place and have been a busy mom too. I am looking forward to seeing what you make in the coming year too.
ReplyDeleteI'd say that was a pretty productive year! Beautiful work.
ReplyDeleteIt is amazing, what you made! So many quilts, blocks, pouches and other things. The EPP looks so lovely!

You've had a great year, and I hope this year to get to actually meet you (my dad started checking that I was still up for a trip to Marrakech in October *ahem* )
ReplyDeleteAll things considered- heat and parenting - you have produced a beautiful array of goodies. I am especially impressed with all the EPP!! It's been lovely getting to know you better too.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful makes! I love reading your blog and look forward to seeing what you make in 2013.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe how much you have made - you should be well chuffed.

Amazing and beautiful bunch of finishes and nearly-finishes - bravo xxx
ReplyDeleteYou have made so much. Have to say-discovering epp has also been the best thing that's happened in my sewing world!
ReplyDeleteYou've done well especially when you toss in being sick and taking care of your wonderful boy.
ReplyDeleteA wonderful year - wishing you all the best for 2013!
ReplyDeleteGiven all the obstacles that you must deal with to get any sewing finished...you have completed a ton of projects and all lovely. I agree, the best part of blogging is talking with and making new friends.
