Cold weather. Gray skies. Three already basted quilts. Sounds like a recipe for a Sunday indoors in front of Hulu and my Pfaff.

I don’t know why I’ve waited so long to quilt this. I started it last March, and it’s just been sitting in a drawer since. I suppose that’s a testament to what I blogged about a few days ago – it’s so tempting and almost addictive to start new projects. Maybe I’m maturing as a quilter, though, because lately I’ve been more interested in completing them. That whole New Year’s resolution thing has really taken hold of me. 2011 will be a year of finishes for me.

Check back in later this week for a tutorial. I’ve been working on a fun, scrappy block that is the perfect thing to use up all of those odd sized scraps that you hate to throw away.
