Finger update and new Challenge
Things are going better now with my little finger accident (my rotary blade attacking me). A friend is re-wrapping my finger tomorrow and we're checking it out.
I have started my quilting challenge (see the Building Block Quilt along button on the left side). I'll be posting some of my blocks that I finished. There are 42, and I've done only 2 but it's started, I have the material and I'm happy. This is the first time I'm using a free-style quilting foot and I'm still getting use to it, but the material is all there, and I can already see an improvement. You'll see it soon, in the next entry. I am starting something new thought that I would like to share. It's the 2014 NewFO Challenge and I'm happy with the concept.
Here's what the group will be doing: Each month, at least one new quilt will be started up. It can be anything I like from bags to potholders or mug rugs to king-sized bed quilts. I don't have to complete any project during the year, just start it. All I need to do to participate is start something new during any given month. On the last day of the month, write a blog post about my new project and link up to the linky party on the blog from Barbara from Cat Patch. As the year progresses, I update my previous months' NewFO projects on my blog and link in the patch. I can also put it on the FlickR Group I joined here. Sounds simple and I have the button below. It's added to my BOMs now. What's one more?!!! ;)
