Blog Post #300!?

I happened to notice my tally of blog posts the other day and this very post is number 300!  How did that happen so fast?

I never knew when I started blogging that I would enjoy it so much!  It's a blast sharing what I'm learning and creating.  It gives me some creative freedom and permission to make something that is not a show quilt.  I love those too, but blogging has been very freeing from that.

So...what to do for post 300?  How about a few highlights!

First of all, I started not only this blog, but at blog post 100 I started a Facebook Group called Machine Applique Adventures which is up to about 550 members!  There are people form all over the world in the group which I find so amazing and fun.

Second, becoming an Island Batik Ambassador has been an absolute pleasure and thrill!  Here are a few lovely projects from my 2016 tenure.






Third, I've done two quilt alongs!  The Flower in a Pot Quilt Along and the Brick Wall Free Motion Quilt Along (links are at the top of the page and I updated them last weekend!).  So fun!  I'm thinking about what to design next...



Fourth, I've made new quilting friends which is always fun!  (Yes, I know....lots of exclamation marks.  The third grade teacher in me cringes, but I'm just so excited I can't help it!!!!)

I hope you get to quilt today!
