Fun is afoot!


 Rainbow quilts!  The color of this month is:  RED!  I have started a new quilt with wonky stars.  I thought I might not like making these stars...BUT I LOVE THEM!!  So much love, that I made two.
 Angela at So Scrappy is hostessing a new quilt along...please see her blog HERE.  Tiny blocks, with lots of visual impact.  She is posting one each week, and it is a free quilt along.
 I had a jelly roll...note the past tense.  I whacked it all up and am making this, for a nursing friend who likes purple.
 Happiness?  Is a new rotary cutter blade!  Hahaha!  This was my Christmas present, the one I asked for...new rotary blades.  Cuts like a hot knife through butter!
 I have been collecting keys for some time...some very old, some just pretty.  I found this wooden heart at JoAnn fabrics yesterday, and had a 60% off coupon, so it came home, and we put cup hooks on it...and there you go!  I have room for some more old keys.
 Yarn sale too, at Joann's.  I made a little dishcloth.  I can still crochet, after a fashion, that is.
 I guess I need a bright bag, or someone does...anyway, this got made too.
 This is my table runner for January...and it is BRRRRRrrrrr here!  Raining all day.
 These are just a few of the gifts I received from my friend Lyn...thank you, Lyn!!  I love each one!
And such a fun fabric postcard...thank you, Nines!!

There are very few things better than a new rotary blade! Lots of pretty projects going on at your house. I am going to join in the RSC19 sampler too. It sounds very fun!

Rotary blades and needles - ack, I need to change them more often in 2019! ❤️ the star blocks.

A new blade? What a concept!! ;-)

Look at all these fun projects. LOVE the wonky stars!
That is a great quilt for a purple lover (I should know--I am one). :)
What a fun idea to display the vintage keys. They are all keys to your heart. Sorry--couldn't resist.
Very pretty bag!
Looks like you were treated very well by Lyn.
Happy New Year, Julie!

I'd say you've gotten a jump-start on a lot of fun stuff. I am looking forward to Tiny Tuesdays, too; doing my first red block(s) today.

Wow, you have a fab start to 2019. Wonky stars seem to be trending right now. I'm giving them a try myself.

Your wonky stars are great; I am always drawn to red quilt anyway, but this will be spectacular! Actually, all of your projects are wonderful. The table runner is so nice and your key display is inspired; here's to 2019 and much more fun afoot! Happy New Year!!

Karen said...

I like those stars too. Are you going to be making all wonky stars for the rainbow challenge>

I have my red scraps pulled and I am ready to sew. I was just thinking today I might break out a new blade - perfect for the new year.

Love your star blocks!
