It's a set of Thangles and the fabric for the first block in the Buck A Block club from my LQS! I joined this project since I have the time. With all our changes and my 45 second commute, I think starting a quilt top is possible. Those who know me may wonder at the purple. The color theme is purple, green and off white, which will be perfect for one of our rooms. So my first bed size quilt goes for a guest room instead of ours or for family but that's what timing does sometimes.
I don't do the whole New Year's Resolution thing. After reading this post and with all the changes in our life, I decided it's time to look at where I am and define a purpose to what I'm doing. Part of defining my purpose is to focus on things, people, and what I do. Our move has blatantly shown that we have too many things and keeping up with all of it takes too much time which directly impacts other things we want to do. So beyond my new quilt project, my first project of purpose is a strategic purge of things for myself and the family.
Goodwill and Salvation Army thrift stores will be seeing frequent trips from me. Of course I'm certain there will be many rounds of "but I really need/love this & that," so I'll keep you updated on where we end up.

Looking forward to seeing this in motion. :)
That 45 second commute must be a killer! I love resolutions for the new year, but I can see why many people don't. I take my resolutions seriously, though. It seems like a lot of people don't really base them in reality or aren't serious about them.
