My Best 2015 Post and Future Goals

Reviewing my best 2015 post -

Upon it's closing, 2015, as been 
quite a year.  It's been full 
of challenges, set backs and 
adventures that have stretched
 me in more good ways then bad.

I'm definitely blessed to
have made some friends!  


Looking back and reviewing
my best 5 post which are:






and




These two posts are a Sew Along from  
one of my favorite local quilt
 shops.  The sew along is still going on 
so you will see more of these in 2016.  These
are from Farm Girl Vintage Book by Lori Holt.





was rated by third best post!  This block,
 Dog Gone Cute
#dgcqal quilt pattern by Lorna
 from Sew Fresh Quilts,
was made several times.  Those that
received this block just adored it. 




I made this log cabin quilt for a
 family member! Both my husband and I
 stayed in their guest house.
They of course live in a log cabin home! 




My garden card rated fifth!  I needed
 a simple gift
card for a friend and what 
better way then to use
what you have in your own garden!

I hope you will take the time to visit 
any of the post mentioned 
above if you haven't already.  

What about 2016?  

Upon reviewing the past
 year and looking 
forward to 2016, 
My most important goal
is  definitely needing  to be a
little more organized, marking
 dates on my calendar!!

I hope to be more creative and design 
some of my very own projects!

I believe I will be sharing some of my 
other creations through my cakes
 and cookies I bake!

I plan to continue to participate 
in sew alongs, 
challenges and other events that 
will allow me to
grow and learn which I love to do. 

More book reviews, pattern testing, 
and possibly blog project reviews.

I know it seems like a large order, 
but why not think big.  I work
full time besides writing my blog
 and at times it can be difficult, 
but I truly enjoy it all!



Here are some quilt alongs I plan on taking part in!

Use It Or Lose It Linky Party #2

inchworming



  

Go ahead and grab my button, 
#"Use It Or Lose It, Declutter, 
Get Organized."

Linky Party
May 1st, 2015

My whole desire for this theme
is to help myself and others 
like me, to use what we have stashed
a way in our home. Items like
fabric, books, patterns, clothes, 
beads, cooking items, an old 
vase,etc...  

How many of us have purchased 
fabric with the hopes of making one
or more quilts.  Maybe, it's those 
cookies from that new cookbook we've 
had for 5 years, or that new 
shape cake pan that has been tucked 
away in the kitchen. 

I own a numerous amount of
 books and apparel patterns 
that need to be used. In order 
to use some of those patterns, 
I can look to see if I
have fabric already in my stash.  
If I do, there is no need for me 
to purchase any fabric.  But, I may 
have to buy a zipper to 
finish up that project. 

Then again it could be those t-shirts
you've been saving to make a t-shirt quilt 
for your special someone.  
There is no reason we can't 
repurpose our items. 

My hopes for this linky party 
is to also give us a chance to 
rethink and really examine the 
items we have. If you're not going
 to use it, then lose it by giving 
those items away or by throwing
 them out.  This will help us to 
declutter and help us feel good about
ourselves. We can help someone 
by giving it away, or we can try 
and sell some stuff and put money back
in to our pocket. It helps us to
 declutter and get better organized.

Now that you know what this 
Linky Party is about, connect
