Well I'm off to a good start this year with the getting organized. Now if I could only get to the sewing room. I started collecting letter sized paper from people where the copies are bad and junk papers for making paper piecing strip sets for sashing and what not. The papers are then cut down to 2 1/2 X 8 1/2 strips. So far I have a half tub of these (which is about 2,000 give or take a hundred). This will allow me to use up the scraps of the odd shaped and small nature. You can use these for shashing or connect them for borders. I think that would be good for baby quilts and the like. Next step is to get to the machine to start them. Pictures of thesse are to come so you can see what I'm talking about. For more information on this refer to Quiltville.com and watch some of Bonnie Hunter's Quilt cam video.
Stay warm and see you soon!!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!!
Sorry it has been so long since my last post. One of my resolutions is to become more focused on my hobbies this year. I've worked so much overtime this year my hobbies have suffered tremendously. Between work and helping the DH around the house there just isn't enough hours in the day. My first goal this year is to get organized.
One more resolution is to loose weight. Off to a good start as we begin and hope to continue this year as I have a goal in mind this time. I hope you have a safe and healthy new year.
