Skipping Winter

Haha, now Jen has me looking to see how many blog post's I have!
And this is #100 :) Yeah!

So, yesterday I decided to skip winter and head straight to Valentine's Day!

Ever since I finished my 12 Days quilt, I've been itching to start something new.

Thinking about quilting.

Dreaming about quilting.

Planning my next "thing".

Except, I couldn't decide what my next thing was.

My options were:

a snowman wall hanging

valentine pillow

valentine wall hanging

valentine quilt

winter pillow (cover)

swoon quilt

Then I signed up for the Swoon Quilt Along.

Then I signed up for the One Thing, One Week Challenge.

And then I sat in my cave and stared. And thought.

And planned. But I could not make a decision!

Sooooo......I made the winter pillow cover that I wanted to make for my OTOW challenge.

Got that done. Quick and easy, maybe a 2 hour project :)

Then came the hard part.....everything else is fairly involved.

And I usually only have 1 quilt going at a time.

I may have other small projects, but never 2 quilts.

Except, I can't say that anymore!
I started the Valentine quilt yesterday, block 1 of 20 is done.

And I still plan to work on Swoon at the same time.

Today, I ordered the rest of what I need for the Valentine's Day quilt:

border, binding, and another jelly roll, as its going to take 2.

I am using Always and Forever by Deb Strain for Moda.

Its so sweet!

I also picked up some Kona Medium Pink for the sashing and some pink flannel for the backing.

I'm all set for block 2, I just need to go cut it out and do it :)
How about you?
Are you staying with winter? Or looking ahead to Valentine's?
