Finally, a 2020 Wrap Up.
from {The Sweetest Dreams}
Last year was a kind of blur. It started out normal but quickly changed into the year from hell. I hated being away from my family and my sewing/quilting peeps. Both of my guilds, Eastern Long Island Quilt Guild and Long Island Modern Quilt Guild, stopped in person meetings as of March. In June, our Tuesday night North Fork Quilters group decided to meet out in the parking lot of the rec center we normally met in. We were all so happy to actually see each other. Eventually both guilds transitioned to Zoom meetings but it wasn't the ...

2020 Testimony
from Quilt in Piece
“The Best made plans of mice and men…” No matter how carefully 2020 was planned, something may still go wrong with it, and it did. 2020 happened. At the beginning of 2020 there was so many awesome plans, of what we were going to do in the community, in the Church and with outreach. Personally, things were looking up, work was going great for change, we were expecting a raise and a bonus. My family was doing well, everyone had a job, everyone was healthy. But things did not go according to plan. For all of us, plans changed, and ...

2020 - Mein quiltiges Jahr
from Quilt Collection M.
Ich blogge seit 9 Jahren und somit schreibe ich seit 9 Jahren über meine Quilts und sonstigen genähten Dinge. 9 Jahre - das hat mich gerade sehr beeindruckt! In den letzten Jahren habe ich in einem Rückblick das Jahr Revue passieren lassen. Das war für mich immer interessant. Und deshalb mache ich das auch in diesem Jahr wieder.
In diesem Jahr 2020 gab es wieder einige Quilt Alongs, einige Aktionen der Modern Cologne Quilters und dann gab es Corona und damit noch mehr Zeit für Quilts...was für ein Jahr!
Wie so viele andere haben wir Quilter unsere Kontakte kurzerhand im ...

Safari Tango
from Seaside Stitches
My last finished quilt of 2020 is called Safari Tango. It might be the first true double-sided quilt I've ever made. The front was started in an online (Zoom) workshop with Diane Harris, The Stash Bandit, hosted by Ninigret Quilters. She calls her pattern Twofer Tango because you could get two quilts from your effort. The half square triangle units are bonus blocks from the creation of the main X-blocks. I chose to add mine around the border instead of harboring yet another UFO!
The back of the quilt was one of those long-simmering UFOs. Started in a class ...
Best of 2020 ...is that even possible?
from Sew Sunshine
I was not even sure I wanted to look at my blog posts from this year. I was certain that most of the year was me spent not quilting. I was wrong and grateful for this look back.
First up, this is the Modern Quilt Guild #modernclassic makeover. Taking a previously made QOM and make in their new colors. More info on this pattern Courthouse steps remake that I called Strength and Beauty. I deviated ever so slightly from the pattern so did not submit to Quiltcon exhibit but I love this quilt.
Next up is another favorite...the improv ...

The Diamond Ripples Quilt
from Jan's Quilts
This is my final finish for 2020, quilt #22. It's a special quilt for a special family. This is the third quilt I've made for them.
The quilt measures 57" x 72", and will be on its way to Belgium next week.
We're having a very windy day, here in Murrieta. It made taking quilt photos a challenge, but I got it done!
May your bobbins always be full,

Pool Party Quilt
from Jan's Quilts
Well, my LAQ surprised me, and the rest of her customers. She pushed herself to start 2021 with an empty "to-do" list. That meant she needed to quilt a lot of quilts, and some were like mine, not due until mid-January. So I got this Pool Party quilt back before Christmas, and I got the binding on this week. I really love how it turned out.

Best of 2020
from Goer
It's become a tradition for me to share my top five blog posts of the year. This year the trend is all about community: monthly linkups I've hosted, a challenge I participated in, and a blog hop about holiday traditions. Seems fitting that 2020 would be focused on connecting with others. Incidentally, if you haven't already linked up a project to this month's Show Me Something... hop on over and Show Me Something That's a Gift! (You've probably delivered those gifts by now, right?)

Cranky Socks
from Becca's Crazy Projects
Happy, merry, joyous holiday!
I wanted to try a mock ribbed sock. I think it turned out nicely for my first try. Granted, I've made dozens of socks so this was really just learning about the process of skipping needles. I'm really enjoying this cone yarn from CSM Supplies. Totally check them out the next time you want to buy 500 grams of superwash yarn.
I'm still working on socks to give away, too. I should give my ribber another chance. Maybe I'll be better at it than the last time.
