Design Wall Mondays (1/31/2011)
Here's what is on my design wall today! Trying to get a good layout, and figure out what sashing I'd like. I received all these lovely blocks made by my friends in the group Quilt Block Exchange on Flickr!
A good day to quilt!
Today is a good day to hunker down in my sewing room and work on some projects! It is sleeting, and the ice is collecting on everything! We are in for lots of snow also, so going out unless absolutely neccasary is not an option.
I did some work on updating my blog this weekend, and giving it a new facelift, hope everyone enjoys the new layout!
Yesterday, I joined a scrap challenge so will be working on a monthly project along with others using a specific color of scraps.
Also will be participating in Design Wall Mondays. So every Monday I'll be posting about what is on my design wall and what I'm working on.
Tentavily I will also be joining the 2011 UFO Challenge and working towards getting all my UFO's done in 2011, so be watching for my progress reports!

String Blocks I made for Quilted_With_Love Yahoo group swap
I have finished the string blocks for the Quilted_With_Love Yahoo group swap that I am participating in. I'm swapping 3 sets of 4 blocks, and will receive 12 blocks back.
Next week I will need to start on the string blocks for Stashbuilders Yahoo group swap that I am also doing. In that one I am swapping 2 or 3 sets of 12 blocks. So will either get 24 or 36 back, depending on how many sets I end up doing.
More January Happy Blocks done
Finished Teresa T's Happy Blocks last night! I love her Valentine's Day themed 6.5" centers and had to go dig through some of my Valentine fabric to border them! Also, thought the earthy toned 4" centers were pretty cool!
Green Bargello (Update 2)
Wow, after 28 months of sitting in a ziplock bag, in various stages of completion, this project can now be considered a "flimsy" instead of parts of a top, waiting to be finished! Although, it will probably remain a WIP (Work In Progress) for awhile until I figure out if I want to add borders or not. It sure did feel fantastic to sew that last seam together!
