The last post of 2015 was published on December 31, 2015.
That is my reason for later entry to the linky party hosted by Chery of
Meadow Mist Designs. Yes, that is my story and I am sticking to it.
Once again flying by the seat of my pants, skidding past the gates and sliding into the doors, as the linky shuts behind me. PHEW!!! I made it. YAY!!!
Please take a look at the top five posts from 2015 while I catch my breath :-D
5. How many Shades of Grey - This was a description of my creative space, but it became so much more. I have never had more fun writing a blogpost.
 |
| Creative Space - Cleaned up for the Picture |
 |
| Steps to make Paulitiks Block |
 |
| Doodle (made during a boring meeting at work) |
4. Sugarland Fall Festival - Actually, there are two posts about Sugarland Fall Festival -
the buildup and the
(anti) climax. I went through a whole spectrum of emotions during that time period.
 |
| Assembly Line - Bindings |
 |
| My Quilts - See the Tent :-) |
From frenzy and anxiety to rejection and hopelessness, to feeling very lucky, loved and blessed, to sobering reality that brought me full circle. I can only hope that these posts capture some of that.
3. Squirrel Kisses - In third place is Squirrel Kisses. Joyce is the love of my life. Yes, Paul knows that. She is my adopted mom, my friend, my guide and my rock.
 |
| Lover's Knot Pattern - for Joyce |
Squirrel Kisses
tries to embody all my feelings for Joyce (love, regards and absolute admiration) into a quilt.
2. How I conquered the Green-Eyed Monster - This is a post about a very simple quilt that helped me come to terms with very ugly feelings.
 |
| Blocks for Playschool |
This post is special to me because it is about self-examination (being honest with myself) and acceptance (yes, I am jealous) and action (do something about it) and finally emerging victorious over myself (I am not jealous any more). I'll take that over world domination any day.
1. And finally, my best post of 2015 is about my quilt for me - Homeful!!!
Quilting for three years and a blogger for just two, this blogpost was my recognition not just from fellow quilters but a quilting icon - Bonnie Hunter.
 |
| Homeful |
Yes, that is correct. Bonnie shared my Facebook post on her Quiltville page, praising me and my quilt. I was on Cloud Nine and I am still there today :-)
 |
| My favorite block!!! |
That is not all. I wrote to her and she even wrote back :-)
2015 has been an amazing journey but more important it was an extremely fulfilling one too. There is absolutely nothing that I would change about it.
Thank you, Cheryl. You just helped me realize that!!!
