2009 -- it's a wrap!

at first i could only think of one quilt made this year, a double wedding ring done in black and white for my son's wedding in june. surely my year had been more productive than that! and then i started looking at pictures i'd taken that are on the computer and felt so much better. i made a compass quilt for my new granddaughter, the raffle quilt for our guild (members made the blocks and i made spacer blocks and put them together), two tree skirts for wedding gifts, quilted 5 comfort quilts and 2 home of the brave quilts. and also did a BOM at a local quilt shop, but it is still only a top. and this was the year i went back to my "roots" and did some sewing -- my dress for the wedding, lots of baby bibs and sheets, pillow cases and matching sweats for my son's family. whew! and i had been feeling so much like i hadn't accomplished much this year because the brain just didn't kick into gear.

my new year's resolution is to visit this site more frequently. when we changed formats i just got out of the habit and it seems i only think to come here when i have a question. it's nice to once again see the familiar names posting and catch up on everyone. this was the first site i became aware of "way back when we got the internet." so happy new year and may this one be better than the last in more ways than we can count.
