Quilty 365 - One month down - Eleven to go!


They say it takes 21 days to make or break a habit. I am now on day 24 so I guess I have made it! I am absolutely loving my Quilty 365 circles and to tell the truth (because I always do) I really didn’t think I would last this long. I am so enjoying waking up every morning to a little circle in my hand. I began on November 8 and since then I have made one every single morning (except for Thanksgiving day as I was at my sister’s so I made two the day before – see I always tell the truth). Here are my November circles – 23 in all. (actually the little green one in the bottom right corner is my first December one – see I always tell the truth!).

I love feedsacks and I have tried to incorporate as many little novelties as I can.



Once again, thank you Audrey (Quilty Folk) for giving us all the nudge!

    Your feedsacks make fun little round pegs in square holes (that is how I think of this design--I'm telling the truth, too). : )
    Congrats on keeping up!

    I am loving your little feedsack and novelty circles so much! I actually skipped the day before Thanksgiving because I was so busy and had to make two the next evening.:)

    Feed sacks and novelties are delightful for this project. Will it be a charm or are you repeating prints?

      I think I will make it a charm. I know I have enough (yes over 700) different feedsack prints to do it. It just requires a bit more effort to make it a charm so we'll see.

    Looking good - well done for forming the habit haha! There are some great prints in your feedbacks, I don't see them here at all (UK), so they look very novel to me :)

    What fun to see all your feedsack fabrics! I am (very slowly) working on a hexie quilt of feedsack-style prints inherited from my grandmother. I don't have any scraps from that quilt, but will find a way to incorporate some feedsack fabrics into my 365 blocks to honor my grandmother!

    Pretty circle blocks. I know what you mean about starting something and not keeping up. Here's to you and me going the distance with Quilty 365.
