Planning 2020

I have a few things lined up to work on next year....
I couldn't resist signing up for The Quilt Show's 2020 BOM--Sue Garman's Afternoon Delight.
The Quilt Show used Yarra Valley fabrics  in their model and kits (along with other fabrics) and I just happened to have a bundle of my own. I'm adding other fabrics from my stash as well, and hope to only need to purchase border fabrics for this one.

Next up is Smith Mountain Morning, from Bonnie Hunter's book Scraps and Shirttails II. I've been wanting to make this one for ages.
The last few years I've been participating in Bea and Cecile's Quilt Along's--always fun because there is a theme, but you are free to choose your own project within that theme. In 2020 the theme will be Stars and that is the perfect incentive for me to get started on Smith Mountain Morning. 


Smith Mountain Morning is made with recycled shirts and thanks to donations from friends, I have plenty of blue ones....
....brown, not so much!
Actually, I have no brown shirts, but a few home spun fabrics that will be used.
I see some thrift shop visits in my future! 
Instead of the muslin suggested for the light fabric, I will use this Primitive Gatherings fabric since I have several yards to use up.

Those should keep me busy for a while!

I have several other projects I want to get made next year, but these will be a good start. I'm hoping to get some cutting done ASAP--I have a retreat at the beginning of January and need to have something ready to sew!
Do you have any quilty plans for 2020?

  1. That yardage in the first picture is so lovely. Wish I had that collected at my house. I love the star quilt, I haven't seen that pattern before. I don't have any "big" projects planned for 2020. I need to knuckle down and and figure out what needs to happen. Mostly hand quilting the tops that are already completed and finishing Cheddarback. I'm sure something will strike my fancy soon and I won't be able to resist - ha! That's the beauty of being a quilter.

  5. Loved reading this post, Karen. I went to look at the Sue Garman work...a beauty. I wonder how many of the blocks are applique which is what I prefer. Love the other projects as well. I will enjoy following you as you make your start on these in the new year!

  9. I have the Afternoon Delight patterns and some of the Yarra Valley fabric. I have thought of purchasing more of it. I filled out an online order for it and then closed the page thinking I should not be buying more fabric at that time. Still tempting.

  11. Male pattern baldness is treated with minoxidil solution and foam in order to encourage hair growth. Male frontal baldness and receding hairlines are not treated with it. To encourage hair growth, women with thinning hair should use the foam in conjunction with a solution of 2 percent minoxidil. Will Other Drugs Affect Minoxidil Topical Form? is a class of drugs referred to as vasodilators. It is unclear how minoxidil encourages hair growth. This medication does not treat hair loss following childbirth, quick or uneven hair loss, or hair loss with no apparent cause (such as when there is no family history of the condition). Do not use this product if you are under the age of 18.

  14. Ayodhya, situated in the northern state of Uttar Pradesh, holds immense significance in Hindu mythology as the birthplace of Lord Ram, a revered deity in Hinduism. The controversy surrounding the site dates back to the 16th century when the Mughal Emperor Babur constructed the Babri Masjid in Ayodhya in 1528. The mosque was built on a site believed by Hindus to be the birthplace of Lord Ram, leading to a longstanding religious and cultural conflict.
