I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday and have a Happy New Year.
For me, this year is the year to finish projects, I have started and create with all of the wonderful prizes I have won and gifts given by friends. I am truly blessed and plan to make time to make time for myself and for charity quilts this year.
One of the things I started last year was a wool quilt. I have all the blocks sewn, except one, so it is just a matter of finishing that and embellishing the ones I made. The blocks are all different sizes, so I will be putting them on a background wool, that I have made to size and then filling in the empty spaces with scrap wool pieces. Sort of a crazy quilt, and a scrap quilt, so we shall see how it comes out;)
I looked in my old files and only saw one photo of a couple of blocks, so I will share a few more tonight and later when they are all embellished, I will do a group shot and progress. I have no idea what I am doing, just making them, sewing them and seeing what becomes of it.
I hope that all of you and your families have a wonderful New Year that is filled with blessings.
The blocks are made from various patterns in books and a bit of my own, no one designer, I just used what I like.

Innovation is the creation of the new or the re-arranging of the old in a new way. You keep amazing me with your creativity Debbie :-)
Here's to the bright New Year
And a fond farewell to the old;
Here's to the things that are yet to come and to the memories that we hold.

I love all of your blocks... especially the cat on top of the house and the heart block....can't wait to see the whole thing put together.I'd love to know where some of these designs came from ?

What a great idea - just take little from here and a little from there of all the patterns that you love. You are sure to end up with a quilt that says 'You!' and will be loved forever and every.
