2018- Quilting Year in Review- July through December

The second half of 2018 definitely showed a slow down in productivity.  I spend a lot of time with my grand daughter Eva in the summer, and we also had a major trip, plus there were all those holidays…

Red and White Sampler

That is a good one to end with I think.  I didn't do much sewing in December, other than about two dozen microwave bowl cozies.  

2018 was an excellent year for me, without a doubt my most prolific ever.  I think I need to slow down a bit more in 2019.  I feel as if I was in a bit of a fever to get things done last year.  I want to savor the process more in 2019.

  3. They’re small & fun so Christmas Pines & Three Trees are on my list to try this coming year! It seems that we go through cycles with quilting from no mojo to prolific. Your quilts are beautiful & you should be proud of so many finishes this past year!

  4. Lovely and delightful, one and all! So gald you had the time and energy plus the inspiration to make these marelous quilts! Applause!!
    Hugs!

  5. You sure had a productive year, with a lot of lovely quilts to show for it. I’m working on Aurora now, it will be a gift for my mom.

  6. I like your year-end review, Nicole. I don’t know if I’ve ever told you that way back 10 years or so, I came across your blog, found that your style closely matched my own, and that led me to start my own blog. I thank you for being my inspiration, and after all these years, I still follow your blog, while many others have bitten the proverbial dust! I hope your 2019 is equally productive!

  7. Love all of he quilts and runners you made! Wow, prolific is right! You’re always an inspiration to try something new or finish something. Happy 2019!
