New Year, New Projects, Part 1

I don't have a cool retrospective for 2013, since I really just started this blogging thing, so I thought I would just go straight to what I have planned for 2014. First, I signed up for a couple of Blocks of the Month, or BOMs. I've never done one before, so now I'm doing two! First is the Gen X Quilters Vice Versa BOM.  Besides having the greatest blog name ever (I TOTALLY should have thought of it first), I really like their blocks and I'm excited to work with solids (and some patterns, as you can see above... I can't resist). I'm going with Art Gallery solids in Nordika-themed colors with some Nordika thrown in. I haven't decided yet, but I'm probably going to have to get one of the cool panels that comes with the collection. I have a year to decide :)  I already love the Art Gallery fabrics, both solids and prints are soooo soft and the colors are so rich. I can't wait to dig in and see the blocks come together.

Almost the weekend, so hopefully I'll have something to share by Sunday. Unless the Federal Government gets overwhelmed by a few feet of snow suddenly tomorrow morning and I find myself with lots of time and nowhere to be. Fingers crossed!!!
