Do you know that there is a link up for all quilt alongs over at Busy Hands Quilts? Oh dear... be still my heart!💙
Luckily many of the projects don't appeal to me or are expensive and require book purchases, so truthfully I am not tempted by those.
But when I was over at Busy Hands Quilts link up I noticed the "It's a wild life" BOM starting soon at Sew Incredibly Crazy. I have a pretty wild and crazy life, so that sounds perfect for me!
And I loved the Aurifil BOM from 2016 which I made in red and white and finished in November last year. I skipped their project last year because the first block was an applique cat which I didn't want to do. Some of the blocks later in the year were interesting, but I was already on to other things and lost track of that. You can see the block patterns here.
The theme this year is "The places we go" and you can see the list of 2018 block designers here. Most of the designers are new to me so that's exciting. The first block looks like a fun challenge. The info is posted here and is by Canadian designer Katja Marek. You can see the link up for the first block over at Pat Sloan's blog here.
Did I just confess that I am starting 3 new projects?!?!

yes you did, lol
You and me both, sista'! I totally am tempted by sew-alongs, mysteries, etc. Even worse now that I am a blogger and have so many virtual-friends. Sometimes I think I should give up my blog so as to not be led into temptation as often!!!
Kathy - you are incorrigible!! I hope you are feeling much better. :)
I hope you are at least feeling better, or else, you will be WAY behind on all of these.
There are so many to choose from, I'm a little afraid to go read Busy Hands' post (you reminded me I need to do that). I keep finding more that I'd like to do, like Katja's block -- so cute, and it's orange! Yikes. So tempted, and February is Blue Nickel Studios, another favorite of mine. Oh dear. Anyway, I think you'll enjoy all of your choices! You go!
Ha ha, yes you just put it in writing here where we could all read it! Oh well, as long as you're having fun, it's all good :)
Kathy, you need an intervention!!! LOL
It would appear that you have made a confession!!! So that must also mean that you are feeling better. Glad to hear it...back to regular blog posts and with all the new starts, you will have something to write about!!!
LOL, it would appear that you have. I am delighted that you mentioned my Square Dance mystery, thank you!! It will have six sizes to choose from so you can make the size that fits your time best.
Well, thanks Kathy! Now I just HAVE to do the "It's a Wild Life" QAL! Have fun with all of your sewing!
Hoping you are getting better with the Flu! Thx for helping me add to my addiction! LOL
You make me chuckle! But isn't having fun what quilting is all about?
LOL - I am afraid to visit the sites you mentioned... and if I can't resist...I have so much to deal with right now, and want to continue others project I starded some day. I am trying so hard don't start another one and leave it at some point in the middle ...poor of mine.
Thank you for the links
Have fun.
Yes, you did :) Enjoy the journey!
It's always fun to watch your quilt alongs come together. I'm really tempted to do Carole's mystery and use up some scraps, but I really need to finish a few things first!
yes always have to be careful this time of year...so many tempting new ideas
