I'm joining the game a bit late, but, in an effort to consistently work on some quilting projects I've been wanting to start and/or finish, I'm participating in "A year of Lovely Finishes" hosted by Shanna of Fiber of All Sorts and Melissa of Sew BitterSweet Designs. For this little activity, I make and commit to a goal for something I want to finish by the end of the month, then do it!
My next project is a quilt for the living room couch. Here's the pattern I chose:

I plan to use civil war reproduction fabrics for this. I picked up a couple charm packs from the shop where I take classes--- (School House Quilts) and ordered a large fat quarter pack of some other repro fabrics on Etsy!
