Stitchin' Friends

Although I have lots of 'Stitchin' Friends', it's been quite a long time since being a member of a Quilting Group.  The opportunity has presented it's self numerous times over the last ten years, but truthfully, I was a bit burnt out on quilting.  Owning a Quilt Shop will do that to you.

I have quilted these last ten years, and I certainly have been immersed in quilting, sewing and fabric...just not with an organized Quilters Group.  Now I am.  So, CollectInTexas Gal has a new Label...Stitchin' Friends...which is not the name of the group, just a good title for CITexasGal. 

January was a good time to become a new member as I got in on the first 'BOM' (block of the month), a 'Stitching Challenge', and several other plans for 2018.  I'm looking forward to  getting back in the 'Quilting Groove'.  Let's start with the BOM and the 'Focus Fabric' I plan to use.
Christmas with M'Liss is a fabric I had listed on Etsy.  I have a good bit left, and I think it is a good choice as the focus fabric.  Lots of options for supporting fabrics of color and pattern.  The finished quilt will be donated to the groups charity for children.  Here's January's BOM.

    1. Thanks Cheryl. I'm looking forward to quilting with a group again. I've really enjoyed all of your quilter groups posts. I, too think this will be a perfect fabric for a kids quilt. It will be a good size throw with 12 12" blocks.
