I love a Bright and Shiney New Year! HELLO 2017 we are going to be very good friends!
Here at I Love to Make Quilts I want to kick off Jan 1 with a BANG .. a Quilty Prize worthy type bang...

Jan 1, 2017... the first page of our new year is so FULL of possibilities! My personal tradition is to be SURE I do a few minutes of ALL the things I want to do MORE of this year. For me that is...
- Sew sew sew!!! did I mention sew?
- Take a walk, I want to walk more
- Take a few minutes to be relaxed, maybe read, look at a book, or just listen to some music. Take some time to let my mine think. I tend to be a go-go-go person and have to force myself to slow down.
The Quilt behind my Question is my new 'Pinwheel Park' Layer cake pattern + one fabric pattern, hope you make one!
Now for the fun!!!
What will you do today to kick off 2017?
Answer in the comments below by Jan 4 at 6pm EST and you could win this prize
Winner is Kathy B who said "My 2017 goals are to shine my sink which I am hopeful will spread thru out the house. I'm going to tame my sewing areas so I can get more done. I'm going to quilt more of my quilt tops. I'm going to cut projects for each machine I have. These will include nursing home quilts, baby quilts, pet quilts and some for family. I'm going to cut a simple quilt to send to my sewing granddaughter to put together. I am thinking of rejoining the church lady quilting bunch every other Thursday. I am going to get back into the habit of walking the pets."
