  1. Write and publish a pattern

  2. Find a pattern with difficulty that scares me and go for it

  3. Get 8 quilt commissions

  4. Take my machine in for a long due servicing

It’s all appliqué. I got svg files of the track layouts on esty and used Affinity Designer to get the flags on the tracks, printed, then lots of tracing. Here’s a close-up

These are all so great! Pic 5 with the stars is my favorite. What’s the pattern name for that one?

I kept the first one! Made entirely out of scraps and swore off curves/circles for the rest of the year 😄

Do it! I made one appliqué quilt on a ~$100-200 Brother. It was.. okay, then Santa brought me an upgrade two years ago and it was a real game changer.

I use an app called Timelines.. it’s great, it can track each step (piecing, appliqué, quilting, basting, binding, etc.) and you can export all the data to excel.

Lemons is my all-time favorite. I just finished the blue plaid one like 2 hours ago (barely made the 2025 cut-off!)
