New Year, New Quilt

Hm. I am having a rush of motivation and inspiration for the new year. Namely... I am finally (finally) going to start (and therefore finish) my niece, Alexa's, QUILT.

I went back into my blog archives to discover that is has been almost 6 MONTHS since I first declared I would make her a quilt and I am truly appalled with myself that I have not yet started (and therefore finished) her quilt. She's already in a big-girl bed, although not yet in a twin size (I think!) so it's overdue to her.

So, with this picture in mind:



And a 40% off sale at my favorite quilt shop... I'm off to start. I'll set a goal... End of February this quilt needs to be done!
