New Year...New Projects

The house is de-Christmas-ed, and I'm working away on my Bonnie Hunter mystery quilt that so many of you have finished. Yeah, I'm a little behind.  But I am in the home stretch! ;-)

My attention is turned to new BOM's.  I always start the year with big plans...Some happen, some get filed for when I get the time.  ;-)  Have you been there and done that????   LOL!!!

With each new year, comes a new lineup of free BOM's that our wonderful and generous bloggers share. I just can't help myself but to make big plans for finishing them all!

My friend Angie, over at Angies Bits and Pieces has put together a list of many of the BOM's coming up this year.  You can find it right HERE.   I recommend you check them out and start your wish list too.

While I've added files to my computer this morning for quite a few of them... Here are my top 3 choices.

Let me tell you just how hard it was to narrow it down to 3.

It looks like black background quilts have captured my heart this year!

Head on over and take a peek at the list yourselves..

Let it Go...

If you know a young girl, there is a good chance you've heard "Let it Go" about a zillion times!

 

Disney's "Frozen" has seemed to take over the world.

While it was tough, I was able to get my hands on this panel.

The coordinating prints were long gone, so I improvised!

:-)

While I was in NY, I purchased a couple of yards of this white fabric that was partially see thru.

I added a blue solid behind it, and loved the lacy look it gave!

AccuQuilt Go snowflakes, from Fairy Frost fabric.

 

And a soft Minky back.

Having never used Minky before I had to get some advise on long arming it.

Wow, does it quilt up nice.

I'd seen the movie long ago, and never dreamed it would take off like it did.

So, don't you know, I had to have my own copy of it.

It was in my stocking when I woke up Christmas morning.

Thanks to my son.

Not to say that he doesn't think I'm crazy...

just sayin!

:-)

You know your thinking it too!

 

Hope it was a Merry Christmas for all of you!

Wishing you all, a very Merry Christmoose!

Who's hanging on your tree?

When a friend of mine came up with these guys, I knew I was hooked.

 

Her inspiration came from Disney car antenna toppers.

 

Only Kim (the biggest Disney fan I know)

would dream these up.

 

Now you have to admit, they are too fun!

If you go to Pinterest and look for crochet balls, there are lots of different free patterns.

The one I used is from Naztazia found HERE.  

(Scroll down the page till you see the balls with faces on them)

But while surfing I stumbled on this fabulous Pinterest page for those who just love to crochet...

You've just gotta check these out!

Happy surfing!   And it goes without saying... Happy Holidays!
