A Year of Lovely Finshes

I've been seeing this button popping up on some of my favorite blogs this week and I decided to play along. I love the motivation to check some of my many WIP's off the list this year and focusing on one project each month seems completely manageable. Sew Bittersweet and Fiber of All Sorts are hosting this fun, year long party and you can find the linky party for January Goals right here.

Of course my real goal is to finish one quilt, one article of clothing (for myself or the kiddo) and one bag each month. Maybe a little less manageable but it's still my goal! We'll see come December whether I'm fooling myself or not - should be entertaining either way ;-)

So this month I am going to finish my scrappy trip around the world - surely you've seen them sweeping Instagram like a wildfire? There's a flickr group too! It seems like they're everywhere and with good reason - easy, addictive and you can stash bust with them. So I've already cut all my strips (I think) and I'm starting to sew them all together. Harper helped me put the strips into sets of 6 by choosing three warm and three cool AND she keeps calling it "my quilt. Honestly I love working with her on projects so I'm fine with that, but the next one will be mine! Teehee.

So here's my Lovely Finish for January - my scrappy trip quilt. I'm excited!

We took a little vacation last week but we're back and life gets back to normal starting first thing tomorrow. See you back here then?
