2021 Monthly Recap: November
It's been a busy month on the blog! I enjoyed writing my weekly quilt-along posts for the Bernie's Mittens Quilt-Along and seeing all different versions you made. I finally shared my Zephyr quilt pattern and I hope you love it as much as I do! If that's not enough, I also finished one of my oldest WIPs, a quilt I started back in April 2016. It was a great way to end my sewing "year" - December is for small fun projects and lots of time baking holiday goodies in the kitchen.

Quilts Started
Christmas Zephyr - the third version of my new pattern mentioned in the intro above. I've been stashing Christmas prints for a long time without using them and seeing them all together in one quilt makes me so happy! It's also my first time doing a random layout of the quilt and I love how different it looks from the first two that I made.
Quilt Progress (3 WIPs touched)
Harry Potter QOD - One of my mostly ignored goals is to touch at least every single one of my WIPs this year. I haven't touched this Harry Potter quilt since late last May, and I'd forgotten how close to being finished the bookcase actually is. This Rita Skeeter block is a new release and I immediately felt drawn to make it (paper piecing is my go-to palette cleanser between finishing big projects and starting something new). Now I'm feeling inspired to at least finish the bottom row of the bookcase before I put it away again.
Blocks made for both my memory scrap quilt and leaders and enders quilt.

One favor - please consider signing up for the BluePip Designs newsletter. I have been sending out weekly emails with the sew-along but "normal" will be once a month. Instagram has been messing with their algorithms lately and it's the best way to keep up with everything I've been working on, plus sneak peeks of patterns and special coupon codes for my pattern shop!
