Well, here is is a year and ten months since the last post. I really haven't been doing much creatively since March, but I will slowly catch up with posting about other projects. I failed miserably at doing 12 in 12, in fact i've finished ONE quilt so far in 2013 and most of the ufo's on the list are still unfinished. So I renamed my blog, and i'm starting fresh. For those of you who don't know, Minion is my family nickname!
My first goal is to get a crafting space that is usable cleaned out and kept that way. I need to be able to FIND what I want to work on when I want to work on it. I search and then give up, and the projects keep piling up.
Next, I have a top that needs to get done and to the quilter, one that I need to quilt, and 5 that I need to get quilted or finish the top or both. So one at a time, that's going to happen.
This winter, i'm going to piece as many scrap quilts as I can and make a bunch of small things - I need to clear out the scraps. Bought a new scrap quilting book yesterday. I love all of Alex Anderson's books, so i'm hoping that I will love the scrap quilt one, too!
What HAVE I been doing? A lot of swapping with the ladies on the Quiltingboard, working in arts administration, and dealing with a lot of things that have sapped my creative energy. But i'm beginning to be able to see the sun again after a long, hard year, and my creative energy is coming back. I can't wait!
