What's your ALYoF goal this month? 

My goal is to make a bag out of Echino. I’m not using any specific pattern but I would like to end up with a messenger type of bag.

How do you approach your sewing goals? 

I need to have deadline on my goal and I have to put the WiP piece in a visible place. If I’m really into something I need to finish it quick while the interest last.

How do you organize/prioritize your projects? 

The most important is date. Priority goes to presents for certain occasions/dates and I like to get involved in QALs which also have specific dates for final linky party. I do admit I’m not very organized and procrastinate a lot.

What is your current favorite project that you are working on? Will you share pictures with us?

I love rainbow projects and I wanted to try the Hex N More ruler for a while so I combined those two which resulted in my current favorite WiP called Mini Disco. Hopefully it’ll become full size quilt with the splash of rainbow across. Here’s a peak.

What is your dream project to work on? 

I sort of had my dream come true and I would like to do it again. My friend, who runs fabric store, sent me her fabrics and I made her a quilt for display in her store and quilt market booth. I got to play with wide range of fabrics and the layout was up to me which I enjoyed very much.  

What is your favorite time of day to sew? 

That would be morning hours or any other with good daylight.

What is your favorite quilting/sewing accessory? 

I couldn’t possibly live without my ¼” patchwork foot with guide. That thing makes my seams even which is quite handy since I tend to be negligent :-)

What is your number one quilting/sewing goal for 2014? 

My number one goal is to keep on having fun with what I do. I hate to feel obligated.

What is one technique you really want to learn?

I want to get better and learn more about FMQ. I took the first steps already.
