I'm about 1/3 through an orange peel quilt that I convince. myself I should master the curves there, instead of applique-ing them. And now I'm avoiding it every time I enter my sewing room! Love your goals! Best of luck in 2014!AnneMariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11420795573272019663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2868583750761494400.post-12695681114668774542014-01-12T01:05:02.423-05:002014-01-12T01:05:02.423-05:00a double wedding ring quilt is one of my goals for...a double wedding ring quilt is one of my goals for this year too!

I am not much of a quilter, though, and I would like to master applying binding by machine. Your new fabric collection is dear---it really does remind me of the sheets and other textiles I remember from the '70's. (And yes, I realize I probably started knitting before you were even born! I can tell you that time really does fly by.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2868583750761494400.post-47912523916035980372014-01-10T14:10:19.054-05:002014-01-10T14:10:19.054-05:00Your sewing room looks really great but it is too ...Your sewing room looks really great but it is too clean .

I finally reopened the box of all my knits in progress to try to start a new one (ironically enough). <br /><br />I don't really have an official list of crafty goals for this year. I suppose finishing something that I have already started would be nice.
