New Year Beginning

A week into the new year now, I really do hope that this will be good year for all.  The last year was so busy that I can barely remember everything.  The trip to my Brisbane sister in April and the trip to my family in Wales in October were my highlights.

Quilt ideas are everywhere.  This was at the local museum, https://museum.wales/stfagans/   We arrogantly think we have thought up original quilt patterns...this is over 1600 years old.



 Our local Quilt Festival early in October was tiring, but so much fun.  Each on the Committee was challenged to produce at least one mini quilt hexagon for an art installation.  This is one of mine, based on the Festival logo.

 

 Joined a few different in-person stitching groups, the meetings of which are soul-food.   Not a lot of finishes in 2025, but a few projects got moved along a little. 

 And, a fair amount of time was spent thinking about this:

One does not realise the detail that is needed in writing a mystery quilt pattern!  I wanted to add some photos here, but it's too soon!

Please join in with us.   The introduction will be out next Friday.

 Happy quilting!
