One Quilty Goal - January
Welcome 2020! A new year for me always starts with a little bit of decluttering as I pack the Christmas decorations away, so I'm started the year by hitting my 2020 goals hard. I have two sub-goals for myself in January. The first is to mail two quilts out by the end of the month. One just needs a label and the other is about 40% quilted (by me!). I can't give any more details right now - neither recipient knows I have something for them so I don't want to ruin the surprise in case they are reading here.
The second part of my goal is to finish my Scrappy Trip quilt top! Originally I had hoped to finish the entire quilt by the end of the month, but I agreed to some secret sewing today so I think I'm better off aiming just a little bit lower. For this quilt, the time-consuming part is picking the "right" scrappy fabrics to balance the whole thing out. Sewing them together once the fabric is picked is the easy part!

That's a picture of my most-recently finished block. The yellow is one of the fabrics that my 7-year-old picked out as part of his Christmas gift to me (his aunt helped him out in the quilt shop so I had no idea!). I'm linking up this month's goal(s) at Elm Street Quilts!
