Finishes 2015 - Starts 2016

As noted in my last post that I found a couple of UFO's in my knitting stash. I am happy to say that I was able to finish up this pair of socks ( only had to finish one of the feet ).

I also finished this Santa sack that was supposed to be a Christmas 2014 gift for a friend. It too was well past the half way point when I abandoned it for greener pastures.  It is scheduled to go out in Monday's mail.  Better a year or so late than never.  Actually I know if I kept it to send to her next Christmas I wouldn't be able to find it.

  

Once I got my quilty mojo back I started on a baby quilt for a cousins first grand child. Since I shopped my stash for these blocks I am going to use it as my first  piece for

 Sew My Stash 2016

I have committed to Cindys BOM 2016 you can find the details here

I got my deer done.  ( also from my stash ) Hope I can be as efficient  with the remaining months.

For the last few weeks I have been trying to come up with something to do for 365 days in a row. I have tried a couple of things in the past but never got more than 30 days done before fading out.

Then I saw the button for this 365 Project and thought it sounded very doable.  I have opted to use only scraps from 2 bags of scraps sent to me by a friend in the Carolina's. There isn't

 enough background fabric in her bags to complete this project so I will shop my stash for creams enough to finish. (it won't be a problem)

Quilty 365 Project

I cut some circles and some background and pulled together a sewing kit.

Tossed them all into the nifty bag she sent with the scraps and I'm off.

Well I'm off to a good start. It's the 2nd and I have 2 blocks done.  I'm hoping that posting will keep me on target.

Off to a wonderfully quilty start to 2016. Hope you are too.
