My plans were to complete my Jinny Beyer quilt and then go to something else.  But, as usual, I got sidetracked.  Esther Aliu's groups have an allure that I can't resist.  She hadn't posted the new free BOM yet, so I started on one from 2016 that I hadn't made:  Diamond Hill.  I completed the first block and am nearly finished with the second one. 

2018

I've been planning to post some pictures and commentary on our 2017 trip to China, but here it is 2018 and I haven't done it yet.

I think I'll use this forum for something different this year.  Today I got 3 old (they have been hanging in a closet for several years) pieced quilt tops off to the longarm quilter in Kansas City.  She has them scheduled for the second week of January so I suspect I won't have to wait 3 months to get them back as I have with other longarmers.

Every year I make a list of the quilts I want to complete that year, and every year something changes that.  Right now, I'm working on an appliqued and pieced top designed by Jinny Beyer using Jinny Beyer fabrics, so that's my first goal -- complete it.  Then I'll see what strikes my fancy.  I have plenty of fabrics and accompanying patterns waiting in the wings.

I'll try to post as things progress.
