A new year is here with the glorious possibility of endless projects new or perhaps those in the cupboard patiently waiting to be bought to life.....
As always I have the best of intentions to ... keep blog up to date ... complete at least 10 of those endless projects ...
But.... life does get in the way and sometimes you just have to go with the flow of what happens happens .....
Class scheduling is underway as I sit here in my studio at 6 am (can't sleep thinking of those endless projects waiting my hand ...
I did think it was time to overhaul the blog... so yes I have started that ... but without waking the whole house in my pursuit of finding the elusive cellphone that has those much needed photos .. I will patiently wait and find it at a decent hour and then will load those photos before I post.
What do you have on the go this year?
I have the best of intentions to get more machine quilting practice ...
I have been completing the EPP QAL with Helen Stubbings at www.hugsnkisses.net go on over and have a look at this. It is using the Applique paper that can be washed to remove. as an applique needleturn lover, I was not completely convinced of this process, however there is definitely a place for this for those that have little time do not love the needleturn process or are all thumbs when appliqueing. I had a go and would not say I love it but it definitely will have a place in my quilting from now on. those clamshell and applecores are a breeze with this paper..
Also on my radar is to get cracking on my love entwined. I may just use that applique paper for this so I can get lots of preparation done. I just can't decide if I want a messy looking zig zag or a more organised look.... hmmm
Until next time happy stitching...

Gosh lovely projects. I like Helen's applique paper, I have made a couple of 'needle turn' quilts using this product. Good luck with the blog make over, it can be time consuming. Have fun with your quilting too.
I didn't realise you were doing Helen's EPP QAL as well - glad I'm not the only one not finished....it will hopefully become my main evening project very soon!! Love how your LE is looking too - another beautiful quilt in the making :-) That applique paper does have its place I've decided!!
