Looking Back at 2017 Quilt Projects

It is always fun to look back at the past year and see what quilts and projects I have completed. Normally I have done a monthly blog review but it looks like April 2017 was my last one.

When dad got sick I really slowed down on my quilting and I have to say that if I hadn’t had commitments…..who knows what I would have finished! Accountability keeps me motivated! While going through my 2017 posts I actually found several that are still drafts! Some are AccuQuilt posts that go on their blog and then later I share them here.

Almost all of my quilt projects were made as commitments to Island Batik as their ambassador, AccuQuilt as a monthly guest and Fat Quarter Shop for several of their quilt alongs. I also became an ambassador for Aurifil and used their thread in almost all of my quilt projects.

Take a look at the graphic below….this is how far I got on my monthly review graphic! I believe I bought my new desktop computer in April and it has only been in the last month or so that I am moving all of my photos to it. I can’t believe I waited so long as Photoshop and Electric Quilt 8 open lightning fast!

2017 Monthly Blog Reviews

I look forward to a fun-filled year with lots of tutorials…….hopefully my old posts with “Tutorial coming soon” will get taken care of this year.

Last night I spent about 3 hours learning about Dropbox. I have had a free account for several years and have never fully utilized it. I have decided to put all of my files and photos in Dropbox with everything synced between my phone and computers so I upgraded to a paid account. Wish me luck and I’ll let you know how it goes!

    I hope this means you are getting back on track with the monthly summaries as I find them very helpful especially when I’m trying to find a tutorial. I look forward to your projects in 2018 since you write such clear and detailed tutorials.
