Happy New Year everyone!!
I hope you all had a fabulous Holidays celebrations. I sure did and plus I had some time to rest and relax without worrying about traveling. Now it's time to get back to the real world.
I would like to start this year with getting organized.
This year I'll try to organize my sewing space. I joined in with Karen Brown at Just Get It Done Quilts. Karen is running Declutter Challenge 2023. We'll see how much I can accomplish this year.
I also want to start the year with charity quilt projects:
1. Finishing a project for Valley MQG Philanthropy's on going projects. I picked up a bag and this is what's inside.
It's a disappearing 4-patch blocks. There are 8 4-patch blocks that I have to cut, rearrange and sew them back together. There are 12 blocks that were sewn up already too. Interesting!! I've never done this design before. Can't wait to get started.
2. Start a charity quilt for Quilting for Community (Q4C). I got these four lovely fabrics from them and will start making a top in a few days. I'm using Intersection block pattern that I designed for MQG Journal in 2021. If you're a MQG member, you can go to their resource page to get the pattern. There are tons of interesting patterns and articles on the MQG Resource Library. I really enjoy reading and going around the MQG website.
That is my plan to start the new year for now. I'm sure there will be more quilts that I want to make. Some of them are just an idea, but some are already in the design step.
Thank you so much for stopping by.

Happy New Year Margo.
