Oh, My Lucky Stars!



Hi Friends! 

I'll have pictures and project updates for you tomorrow, but I wanted to pop in and let you know I'm all signed up for the Lucky Stars BOM over at Don't Call Me Betsy.  

In late November, I started to have this panicky feeling in my gut. What would I do in 2013 when the In Color Order HST BOM was completed? What would I look forward to on the first of the month? Apparently, I need a BOM in my life. 

In an attempt to fill the void, I signed up for a bee. (My first--eep!) The Make It Modern Bee starts January 1, which gives me something to look forward to, and in the meantime, I've been chatting with my bee mates, who seem lovely. (Hi Bee Mates!)

Then, I started to have this twinkling of an idea. My husband loves paper pieced star blocks. He always tells me how cool they look, and I thought I would make up my own little personal BOM of sorts. Except, now that I'm all signed up for this BOM, I'm good to go, which is awesome because my to-do list isn't getting any shorter, and Elizabeth's blocks look something fierce! They even have husband-approval--fist pump!

Anyway, I'm pretty excited about this new BOM, and I thought you might be too, so check it out, and if you're feeling it, sign up too! 2012 was the year of HST for me, and it looks like 2013 will be the year of the Bee and the year of paper piecing.

I'm off to baste something big and purple-y. More tomorrow!

  3. Ohhh, I'm excited about the bee! I love those stars.

    Hey, we opened your write group package last night! Thank you so, so much! John loved his quilt, and we both love our pouches. You chose the perfect fabric for me.

    Andrea was there too, of course, but even though she squealed happily a bunch of times, I'll let her speak for herself. ;)
