Starting Out in 2014

Wow! It is hard to believe that 16 months has passed since I last posted. It has been a very strange year. I have been crafting though. I finished my Bronchitis quilt last March only took me a year. I really am happy with it. My chevron quilt top is almost put together, I just need to add borders and quilt it.

I have started a jellyroll race quilt for Arianna and Victor. I have 2 or 3 more quilts planned.

I haven't done a whole lot with jewelry but Christmas 2012, we did give all the girls necklaces with stones that their Dad faceted and I set. They loved them. I also made Arianna's wedding jewelry and her head piece. All of which I am really proud of.

I did the corsages for Arianna's wedding as well as the cake. So you see it has been a busy craft year.

Since Arianna came home for about 5 months, my studio has been a mess. Her craft stuff exploded into my craft stuff. I am needing to separate it. Now that the wedding is over and she is out we are trying to regain some semblance of our former work area.

PROJECTS FOR 2014
My first project for 2014: get my studio back in working order.

Second project: finish the Jelly Roll Race quilt.

Third project: a quilt for Killian

Probably getting ahead of myself here so I will stop there.
