After all the long hours of quilting before Christmas to finish the quilt for Bryan and Laura, the one for Jake plus these two commission quilts–all big quilts– I thought it would be awhile before I was ready to start sewing again.
Boy was I wrong. It’s REALLY hard for me to pass up any Quilt-Along, Block of the Month, Mystery Quilt or challenge. There are so many great projects starting this month and I am trying to realistically determine how many I can do. I also just transferred my EQ designs from one computer to another and rediscovered dozens of quilts I’d like to bring to fruition. My head is spinning with plans for new quilts.
Here are some of the online projects I’m considering: Scrappy Challenge at Patchwork Times, Tell It To The Stars also at Patchwork Times, Star Light Star Bright at Happy Quilting, Rainbow Scrap Challenge at So Scrappy and the 2014 BOM at Quilt Doodles Designs, not to mention a couple of new blocks of the month at the LQS. I’m sure I’ve come across several others but I didn’t bookmark them at the time so I don’t have the links handy. I’m still working on Bonnie Hunter’s Celtic Solstice mystery, the monthly quilt for my small group plus a few other projects so I shouldn’t even be considering starting something new, but I sure hate to miss out on the fun!
What new quilts or programs have you started this year?

Love the colors in your top quilt! What pattern did you use?
Susan says
I’ve started way too many! Or planned to start them. =) One I’m doing is the CQJP2014. This is my third year doing a CQJP (crazy quilt journal project), and this is one I’m truly excited about. CQ4fun I do like the way those two quilts look, and the quilting on them is great.
