Best wishes to all for the coming year!
I'm hoping 2024 will be a more productive year for me with my quilt projects. This week is set aside fo working out plans for better organised fabric storage, a plan for order of quilt tops to go under the machine, a full list of quilt tops to be quilted, another list of WIPs and generally enjoying time in my little studio.
Next post I hope to have the above achieved - almost! Sticking point right now is deciding how to quilt great grand daughters quilt, basted and rolled and under the needle,
I'm thinking plain wavy lines over the seam lines, if anyone has a better idea then please let me know.
Some of you may remember me collecting my fabrics for the quilt below
I had quite a tub full but of course found more, one in particular was Hares in Bluebells, no hares in the fields where we played with bluebells, just rabbits, but I needed this, plus a few more which I thought would go well
already gathered and boxed below.
That's all I have for this short post today, let's see if I meet my target within the week. Oh, I also hope to work on my blog over the next few weeks, it does sorely need updating.

Happy New Year to you both.Those fabrics are gorgeous, specially the hare, I can see some serious cutting and sewing coming up for 2024.
I love all your new pretties! Happy New Year!
Happy New Year, a little over 4 hours till midnight here.
Wavy lines over the seams sounds good to me. That will reinforce all of the piecing seams for long wear for the little one.
I'm doing an inventory of tops and making lists for finishing (and prep for finishing) too.
Maureen, you always have the best fabric that makes me drool. You know how to choose it. Happy New Year to you and prayers for health and stamina and no mishaps!
I think that fabric pull/gather is positively wonderful! And I think your quilting plan is perfect. Wishing you a happy new year with plenty of time to fondle fabric!
What a lovely collection of fabrics for your new project. You certainly know how to pick interesting pieces! Good luck with your sorting and list making. Happy New Year to you, your husband and family.
Happy New Year. I remember, as a child, picking armfuls of bluebells, but no recall of rabbits. I love your fabrics.
Lovely selection of fabrics, can't wait to see more! Happy New Year Maureen.
Your fabrics are beautiful! Happy New Year 2024!!
Happy New Year Maureen! Your fabric selections for Across the Fields looks great.
And the backing fabric for your granddaughter's quilt is lovely. Cheered me up. We have a cold wind storm here today, no butterflies.
Some beautiful fabrics in this post! Happy new year, happy quilting.
