I spent most of the day squaring up my Celtic solstice mystery quilt units. Bonnie Hunter posted the reveal as a surprise so I made up two of the blocks to see how they looked. I may put it together like someone posted on fb instead of the Quiltville setting. Someone else posted a great border treatment as well that I may steal. My units are all in a storage bin waiting for me to get going on the top, hopefully I can work on it tomorrow.
I put all of the fabric away and sorted all the scraps into their bins as well. I feel good now that the mess has been cleaned up. I need to get back to the appliqué so that I can it ready and quilted for the quilt show this spring. Better get busy.
I also want to make a list of UFO's that I want to complete this year. I say it every year but I want to try to not buy any more fabric this year unless I need it for borders or backing to finish up a project. this is the year of using up my scraps. I like the wonky stars pattern that Bonnie is working on, that should use up a lot of 2 1/2 inch squares and scraps. I also want to work on Tumalo Trail and get rid of those little squares. Good luck to me.
Happy stitching
